Question

PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS I'M REALLY CONFUSED!!!!!

a small juice company spend $1200 per day on business expensive plus $1.10 per bottle of juice they make. They charge $2.50 foe each bottle of juice they produce. How many bottles of juice must the company sell in one day in order to equal it's daily cost?
this is Algebra 1

Answer 1

in one day they spend 1200+1.10b and the cost of one bottle is 2.5.

1200+1.1b=2.5b

1200=2.5b-1.1b

1200=1.4b

1200/1.4=857.14

so they sell around like 858 bottles
