b=baskets
\n" ); document.write( "3.75 b= cost
\n" ); document.write( "10b=revenue
\n" ); document.write( "cost=75+3.75b
\n" ); document.write( "must equal 10b to break even
\n" ); document.write( "6.25b=75
\n" ); document.write( "b=12 baskets\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check Revenue is $120 for 12
\n" ); document.write( "12 baskets cost $45 and $75 for advertising, $120 is cost.
