I have major problems with this one in particular. If you could please put this problem into a system that would be great. I do not need the answer. Thank you!

$420 is the cost of materials to make all the dolls
$5 is the cost in labor to make one doll
Let x = number of dolls made to break even (cost of production = income)
5 * x = labor cost to make all the dolls
(materials cost) + (labor cost) / number of dolls = price per doll
check
checks OK
make 60 dolls to break even
