The Lakewood baseball team is selling T-shirts for a fundraiser. The shirts cost $100 for the printing design and setup, plus $10 per shirt. The team is going to sell the shirts for $15 each. How many shirts do they need to sell to break even?(1 point) shirts

Answer 1

They need to sell 20 shirts to break even.

Calculation:
Total cost = $100 + ($10 x number of shirts)
Total revenue = $15 x number of shirts

At break even:
Total cost = Total revenue
$100 + $10s = $15s
$100 = $5s
s = 20 shirts

Therefore, the team needs to sell 20 shirts to break even.
