Spanish club at Santa Fe middle school wants to sell mini quiches to raise money for a field trip the culinary department after school will make quiches for $30 plus $0.50 per quiches ingredients. The Spanish club wants to sell each quiches For two dollars how many quiches where they need to sell in order to break even
To break even, the Spanish club needs to cover the cost of making the quiches, which is $30 plus $0.50 per quiche.
Let's say they need to sell x number of quiches to break even.
The cost of making x quiches is $30 + $0.50x.
To break even, the Spanish club needs to sell the quiches for $2 each.
So, the revenue from selling x quiches is $2x.
To break even, we can set the cost equal to the revenue:
$30 + $0.50x = $2x
Subtract $0.50x from both sides:
$30 = $1.50x
Divide both sides by $1.50:
x = 20
Therefore, the Spanish club needs to sell at least 20 quiches in order to break even.
