<PRE><B>Question 574173</B>
if you have spend $350 on equipment to clean offices. and for every office you spend $4.00 on supplies.. how many offices must I clean to come even if i charge $25 per office.
----
Cost = 350 + 4x
Revenue = 25x
---
To come even Cost must equal Revenue:
Solve:
350 + 4x = 25x
21x = 350
x   = 16 2/3 (# of office to clean to break even)
