Step-by-step explanation:

The breakeven point is when the revenue and the expense functions are equal.

Mathematically,

[tex]R = E[/tex]

Applying to this question

[tex]19.75q = 11.25q + 83300[/tex]

[tex]8.5q = 83300[/tex]

[tex]q = \frac{83300}{8.5}[/tex]

[tex]q = 9800[/tex]

So the correct answer is:

9,800
