Question 30848: Can you please help me? I think it's a linear equation. Also, it would help if you put step by step explanations. Thanks so much!!! *A restaurant has fixed costs of $137.50 per day and an average unit cost of $4.75 for each meal served.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! the restaurant's daily income is $6.00 X C where C = number of customers
This must equal or exceed the fixed daily expenses of $137.50 plus
the $4.75/meal served
The equation is
So, there has to be more than 110 cusatomers /day for the
restaurant to make a profit
