A sporting-goods manufacter has spent $1000.00 researching a new product. it will cost them $4.50 to manufacture the item that they will sell for $12.00. How many items must they sell to bearck even?

• 1000+4.5 x= 12x
  7.5x=1000
  x= 1000/7.5= 400/3 = 133.33
  so 134 items are to be sold for break even.
