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

Answer 1

To break even, the total revenue from the sale of the shirts must be equal to the total cost of producing them. Let's call the number of shirts sold "x".

The cost to produce x shirts is:

$100 (printing and design cost) + $10 per shirt (production cost) x x shirts = $100 + $10x

The revenue from selling x shirts is:

$15 per shirt x x shirts = $15x

To break even:

$100 + $10x = $15x

Simplifying the equation:

$100 = $5x

x = 20

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