Krysta's Bakery recently spent a total of $264 on new equipment, and their average hourly

operating costs are $18. Their average hourly receipts are $26. The bakery will soon make
back the amount it invested in equipment. What would the total expenses and receipts both
equal? How many hours will that take?
