Answer:12 baskets must be sold in order to break even

Step-by-step explanation:

The materials needed by the fundraiser team to make each basket cost $3.75.

Let x represent the number of baskets that the team made and also sold. if they spent $75 to advertise their site, then the total cost for x baskets would be

3.75x + 75

The baskets are being sold for $10 each. It means that the total revenue would be

10x

In order to break even, the revenue must be equal to total cost. Therefore,

10x = 3.75x + 75

10x - 3.75x = 75

6.25x = 75

x = 75/6/25 = 12
