A café has a monthly fixed cost of $4700, and a typical customer order costs the café $2. Therefore, the cost to serve x customers in a month is given by x = 4,700 + 2x. The typical order costs $10. So revenue is y = 10x. Find the number of customers that would need to come in the café for the company to break even. (Intersection point)

The number of customers that would need to come in the café for the company to break even is 470.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Revenue = y = 10x ……………….…. (1)

Cost = x = 4,700 + 2x ……………… (2)

Since the company will break even when Revenue is equal to Cost, we therefore equate equations (1) and (2) and then solve for x as follows:

10x = 4,700 + 2x

10x - 2x = 4,700

x = 4,700 / 10

x = 470

Therefore, the number of customers that would need to come in the café for the company to break even is 470.
