The student council is selling popsicles to raise money for prom. Each box contains 10
popsicles and each box costs $4.50. How much does the school need to charge per
popsicle to make a profit of $6 per box?

Sagot :

Answer:

1.05 dollars per popsicle

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the price per popsicle. In order for you to make 6 dollars of profit, each box is going to cost 10.50 dollars because 4.50 is your amount of expenses.  

Profie= revenue-expenses

6= revenue-4.5

revenue=10.5

If you charge 10.5 per box, and each box has 10 popsicles, then one popsicle is 10.5/10=1.05 dollars per popsicle.
