Homework Help: Algebra 1

Can you help me set this up?
Suppose you are trying to decide whether to buy ski equipment. Typically it costs $60 day to rent skis and buy a lift ticket. You can buy ski equipment for about $400. A lift ticket alone costs $35 for one day. Find the break-even point.

Thanks.

break-even is where

60x = 400+35x

where x is the number of days skiing
