They need to sell 5 pieces to cover their expenditures (have a profit of zero).
<h3>
How many cakes will they have sold?</h3>
We know that the costs are:
- $30 for the booth at the fair.
- $2 for each piece of cake they sell.
And the revenue is:
- $8 for each piece of cake.
So, the profit (the difference between the revenue and the cost) for selling x pieces is:
p(x) = $8*x - $2*x - $30
p(x) = $6*x - $30
We want to find the value of x such that p(x) = 0, then:
0 = $6*x - $30
x = $30/$6 = 5

The answer is 169.
169 is a perfect square since 13 times itself (or 13²) is equal to 169.
√279=16.703
√169=13
√154=12.41
√115=10.72
