Riley has a home-based business making and selling scented soaps. She intially spent $90 to purchase soap-making equipment, and the materials for each pound of soap cost $2. Riley sells the soap for $12 per pound. Eventually, she will sell enough soap to cover the cost of the equipment. What will be Riley's total sales and costs be? How much soap will that be?
