PLEASE HELP! I REALLY NEED TO KNOW HOW TO SOLVE IT!!!Julianne opens a dance studio. Her start-up costs for the building, advertising, and supplies total $52,000. Each day, she spends $680 on operating costs (like utilities and wages). She earns $960 per day from her students' lesson fees. Part A: Write an equation or inequality to represent this situation. Let d be the number of days. Part B: When will lulianne begin making a profit? Show all the work you did to arrive at your answer

(960-680)+d= total profit

960-680= 280 dollars of total profit
280× 186 days (six months and six days)= 52,080

So in six months and six days the store will become profitable.
