Multiple Choice

Solve the equation exactly in the complex number system.
-The profit function for a product is given by $P ( x ) = - 0.3 x ^ { 3 } + 75 x ^ { 2 } - 2820 x - 36,000$ dollars, where x is the number of units produced and sold. If break-even occurs when 60 units are produced and sold, use synthetic division To find a quadratic factor of P(x) and then find a number of units other than 60 that gives break-even for the Product.

• A) 250 units
• B) 100 units
• C) 200 units
• D) 10 units
