Revenue from selling the posters:
y = 4x

Cost of producing the posters:
y = 1/2x + 280

Equate and solve for x
[tex]4x = \dfrac{1}{2}x + 280[/tex]

[tex]4x- \dfrac{1}{2}x = 280[/tex]

[tex]3\dfrac{1}{2}x = 280[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{7x}{2} = 280[/tex]

[tex]7x =560[/tex]

[tex]x = 560 \div 7[/tex]

[tex]x = 80[/tex]


Answer: Jason must sell 80 of the posters so that the cost and revenue are equal.
