Answer: Ruth have to make 7 hats to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
Break even point is a point where Cost = Revenue.
Let x be the number of hats sold.
Given: Cost of booth = $63
Each hat cost = $10
Selling price for each cost = $19
As per given,
Total cost = Cost of booth+ (Cost of each hat)(Number of hats)
= 63+10x
Total selling price = 19x
For break even,
63+10x=19x
9x=63
x=7
Hence, Ruth have to make 7 hats to break even.
I think that is the answer to your question if not I'll figure it out
Question
One possible system is
1x + 3y = 4
2x + 6y = 8
Note how 2 is twice as large as 1, 6 is twice as large as 3, and 8 is twice as large as 4.
In other words, the second equation is the result of multiplying both sides of the first equation by 2.
1x+3y = 4
2*(1x+3y) = 2*4
2x+6y = 8
Effectively the two equations in bold are the same which produces the same line. The two lines overlap perfectly to intersect infinitely many times. An intersection is a solution.
