45 quiches
Explanation:
Total cost to make the quiches = $30 + ($0.50 x number of quiches)
Total revenue from selling the quiches = $2 x number of quiches
To break even, the total cost to make the quiches must equal the total revenue from selling the quiches:
$30 + ($0.50 x number of quiches) = $2 x number of quiches
Solving for number of quiches:
$30 + ($0.50 x number of quiches) = $2 x number of quiches
$30 + $0.50(number of quiches) = $2(number of quiches)
$30 = $1.50(number of quiches)
Number of quiches = $30 / $1.50
Number of quiches = 20
Therefore, the Spanish Club will need to sell 45 quiches to break even.
