the answer i have is 12,500 + 3X = 8X Solve: 12,500 = 5X X = 12,500/5 X 2,500 copies hope this helps :)

Answer:

2500 copies is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost to record and produce a master copy = $12500

Additional $3.00 to make each sale copy. The band is planning to sell the final product for $8.00. This gives markup price as =[tex]8-3=$5[/tex]

Now, at five dollars markup cost for per disk, The total number of disks they need to sell are :

[tex]\frac{12500}{5} =2500[/tex]

Therefore, the band needs to sell 2500 copies to break even or recoup their production costs.
