A soft drink machine dispenses x cans of soda each week at $0.75/soda. The cost to the owner of the soda machine for each soda is $0.x.

The weekly fixed cost for maintaining the soda motorcar is $25. Write an equation that relates the weekly turn a profit, P, in dollars to the number of cans sold each week. Then utilize the equation to determine the fewest number of sodas that must be sold to take a weekly turn a profit of at least $34.50.

A. 0.75x + 25. E. 79 cans. B. P = 0.75x - 25. F. fourscore cans. C. P = 0.65x - 25. One thousand. 91 cans. D. P = 0.65x + 25. H. 92 cans.

For the 2nd equation:

34.fifty ≤ 0.65x - 25

59.fifty ≤ 0.65x

Profit/wk = x cans/wk *(income/can - cost/can) -Toll of machine/wk

P = x(.75-.1) - 25

Given P, solve for x. The answer will exist a number.
