After spending $200 on market research, you discover that you can sell many more copies of your book if you price it at $20. Write new functions for both your expenses and your income from selling x copies.

next time put the whole question but

a)  In the cost function you have a fixed cost and a variable cost.  The variable cost is the slope of the line and the fixed cost is the y-intercept so we can say:

c(x)=4x+1550

b)  If you want to break even at 50 books, let p equal the price you need to charge, then we will need to create a profit function.  Profit equals revenue minus cost.

r(x)=px and c(x)=4x+1550, so P(x) (P(x) is the Profit function:

P(x)=r(x)-c(x) so:

P(x)=px-4x-1550

And we wish to break even at 50 books, so P(50)=0:

50p-4(50)-1550=0

50p-1750=0

50p=1750

p=$35.00

So you must price the book at $35.00 so that you break even when you sell 50 books.

c)

The income function is just like the profit function that we found in the last problem, and if we use the price found in that equation we have:

P(x)=35x-4x-1550

P(x)=31x-1550

d)

The variable cost should be the same, the fixed cost SHOULD go up because you have spent $200.00 more for research.  The cost function should now be:

c(x)=4x+200+1550

c(x)=4x+1750

But now our revenue function has changes since we are changer our price to $20 per book, And since P(x)=r(x)-c(x) we have:

P(x)=20x-4x-1750

P(x)=16x-1750

the camry sales+accord sale=828,000. to make it so the two numbers are 18 thousand apart and still equal 828,000, you first need to find out what half of 828,000 is. 828,000/2=414,000. for the two numbers to equal 828,000, you have to add the same amount as you subtract from the middle. in this case, the number is 9,000 because it's half of 18,000. to equal 828,000, you have to add 9,000 to 414,000 for the camry and subtract 9,000 from 414,000 for the accord. 414,000+9,000=423,000.

414,000-9,000=405,000.

423,000+405,000=828,000.

423,000-405,000=18,
