How much should he sell his CD’s to make a profit of $85?

He should sell his CD's for $2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each crate contains 60 blank CD’s and each crate cost $35.

This means that he will pay $35 for 60 CD's.

How much should he sell his CD’s to make a profit of $85?

He will sell each of the 60 CD's for x, which means that his earnings will be of 60x.

Profit: Earnings - Cost = 60x - 35

To make a profit of $85

He should sell his CD's for $2.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x

this answer is !
