A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to
the selling price of each widget, x, by the given equation. Using this equation, find out
how much the widgets would have to be sold for, to the nearest cent, in order for the
company to break even. Only enter one possible price.
y = -x

+ 56x - 314

how to award brainliest:

you must wait until 2 people answer to award brainliest. i'm pretty sure that it should be next to the "" and "comments" buttons.  

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus
