Question 718226: I need help making 2 equations for this:
The break-even point is the point at which income
equals expenses. Ridgemont High School is paying $13,200 for the
writing and research of their yearbook plus a printing fee of $25 per
book. If they sell the books for $40 each, how many will they have to sell
to break even? Explain.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! I need help making 2 equations for this:

book. If they sell the books for $40 each, how many will they have to sell
to break even?
--------------
Expense = 13200+25x where x is the number of books
Revenue = 40x
-----------------------
Break-even:
40x = 13200+25x
-----
15x = 13200
x = 880 books
