HELPPP!! Johnny wants to start making and selling surfboards. His costs are the large sum of money that includes his initial investment and the cost of materials for each surfboard. He has already planned how much he is going to sell his surfboards for. Explain how Johnny can set up a system of equations to predict when he will start to make a profit.

Do you know how to do this?

OpenStudy (gschibby):

Hmm, I'm thinking \[(initial-investment)+(materials)x=(surfboard-cost)x\]

OpenStudy (gschibby):

When the sum of the initial investment plus the cost for making each surfboard equals the amount of money from the income?

OpenStudy (gschibby):

Can you deduce something from that? :P

Yup that really helped :) Thanks
