Samir, a carpenter, spent $300 on specialty tools to make toy horses for children. For each horse he makes, he spends $75 on supplies. He charges $125 for each horse. How many horses must Samir sell in order to break even?
O 2
O 3
O 4
O 6

Given:

Fixed cost = $300

Variable cost = $75 on each supply

Revenue = $125 on each horse.

To find:

The number of horses for break even.

Solution:

Let x be the number of horses.

The fixed cost is $300 and the variable cost is $75 on each supply. So, the cost function is:

The revenue from each horse is $125. So, the revenue function is:

On break even, the revenue and cost are equal.

Divide both sides by 50.

The number of horses for break even is 6.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

$650 per month plus utilities

step-by-step explanation:

just based on the info you gave, it would seem more cost effective to rent at $650 per month plus utilities.   if utilities are, in fact, $150 per month, your monthly living costs would be $800 as opposed to the other option of $825.
