To break even, the Spanish Club needs to make enough money to cover the cost of making the quiches.
The cost of making the quiches is $30 + $0.50 per quiche. Let's call the number of quiches they need to sell x.
The cost of making the quiches is $30 + $0.50x.
The Spanish Club wants to sell each quiche for $2.
To break even, the amount of money they make from selling quiches needs to be equal to the cost of making the quiches:
$2x = $30 + $0.50x
Subtracting $0.50x from both sides:
$2x - $0.50x = $30
$1.50x = $30
Dividing both sides by $1.50:
x = $30 / $1.50
x = 20
Therefore, they will need to sell 20 quiches in order to break even.
The correct answer is: 20 quiches.
