Sidney is making greeting cards, which she will sell by the box at an arts fair. She paid $32 for a booth at the fair, and the m
aterials for each box of cards cost $3. She will sell the cards for $11 per box of cards. At some point, she will sell enough cards so that her sales cover her expenditures. How many cards will that take? How much will the sales and expenditures be?
So think of it like this she starts off $32 negative and subtract 3 from each box of cards she makes . So each box of cards she will make $8 that being said
32/8 =4 (it will take 4 box of cards to pay off her booth expense).
Sales would be 11x 4 =44
Expenditures would be 3x4 =32 (the amount used to make cards ) +32(the amount paid for the booth)
