Keenan has opened a new bake shop in town. Keenan sells each chocolate cake for $10 and spends $663 in rent per month. How many chocolate cakes does Keenan need to sell to make $1,797 in profits this month?

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get our expression ready.

Let's start off with the fact that Keenan will lose 663 dollars at the end of the month due to rent. That means we have to add 663 to the already existing 1,797.

663+1797=2460.

Then all we need to do is put 10x on one side of the equation and 2460 on the other and it turns into a one-step equation.

10x=2460

Divide both sides by 10

x=246

Final answer: Keenan needs to sell 246 chocolate cakes to make 1,797 dollars in profit.
