Smashburger is offering a deal for the next 100 days. joe can buy a pass for $100. this allows him to purchase one Burger day for $2. the average cost of a Burger is $7.50 write in solving an equation to determine how many daily visits will it take for Joe to break even with the deal​?

________________________________

Next 100 days

pass for $100

Burger day = $2 per burger

The average cost of a Burger = $7.50

______________

X= Burger

Equation

7.50 * X = 100 + 2*X

7.5-2 (x) = 100

x= 100/ 5.5

x= 18.18

_____________

x is the number of visits that Jose requires to break even with the deal is 18.18.

Because with 18 visits

7.5* 18= 135

100 + 2*18 = 136

with 19 visits

7.5* 19= 142.5

100 + 2*19 = 138
