<PRE><B>Question 1105996</B>
A student makes and sells bracelets at craft shows. The material to make each bracelet costs $7.50. The bracelets sell for $25 each. The booths at the craft show cost $525. How many bracelets must the student sell to break even? 
What is the break-even point? 
----
Expense:: 7.5b + 525
Revenue:: 25b
----
Equation::
7.5b + 525 = 25b
17.5b = 525
b = 30 (# of bracelets sold to break even)
