(b) Use Goal Seek to calculate the price that results in breakeven. If required, round your answer to two decimal places. (c) Use a data table that varies price from $50 to $400 in increments of $25 to find the price that maximizes profit. If Eastman sells the single user access to the electronic book at a price of $ it will earn a maximum profit of $
