Question 227802: Hello,
I would like to make sure I have set-up the equation correctly for the two following word problems:
A factory had fixed costs of $12000 per month and a unit cost of $3.75 for every pair of ice grippers that it makes. If the factory can sell all the ice grippers it can make for $8.75 per pair, how many must be sold per month for the factory to break even?
Is the equation? 3.75+8.75x=12000
