A company is changing it's pricing model to try and maximize profits. The proposed changes can be modeled by the formula below, where x = # of price increases. (500+30x) is the price after x increases, (250-25x) is the change in sales after x increases. How many increases would result in the company "breaking even"? (profits=0)
Profits= (500+30x)(250-25x)
x=10 or "after 10 price increases"
