The answer is 5x + 30 = 12x
x - the number of pies
It costs her $5 to make each pie<span>, plus a one-time cost of $30 for baking supplies:
</span>COST: f(c) = 5x + 30
<span>She plans to sell the pies for $12 each:
PROFIT: f(p) = 12x
</span><span>To find the number of pies she needs to sell to break even:
f(c) = f(p)
5x + 30 = 12x</span>

ANSWER
Average Rate of Change

EXPLANATION
To find the average rate of change of y=f(x) from x=a to x=b means finding the slope of the secant line joining the points
(a,f(a)) and (b,f(b))
The slope of the secant line joining these points is

This gives the average rate of change of the function.
