Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The break-even point is the point at which income equals expenses.

Let that number of books sold be x

Printing costs = 13200 + 25x

Book sale = 40x

At break-even, the printing costs is the same as book sale.

13200 + 25x = 40x

15x = 13200

x = 13200/15 = 880

Let that be x

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 13200+25x=40x[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 40x-25x=13200[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 15x=13200[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=13200/15[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=880[/tex]
