The senior class is making T-shirts as a fundraiser. The material needed to make each T-shirt costs $3.75. The students sell each shirt for $10.To increase sales, the students spend $350 on advertising. How many t-shirts must the students sell to breakeven?

the number of t-shirts sold to breakeven is 56 t-shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of t-shirts sold to breakeven is shown below:

= Fixed cost ÷ (Selling price - cost price)

= $350 ÷ ($10 -  $3.75)

= $350 ÷ 6.25

=  56 t-shirts

Hence, the number of t-shirts sold to breakeven is 56 t-shirts

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .

if i put something wrong your not gonna like it so rather not say nothing.
