Question

A hairdresser is deciding to open her own studio. If the hair dresser chooses Location A she will pay $1200 in rent and will earn $45 per
haircut. If she chooses Location B, she will pay $1800 in rent and will earn $60 per haircut. How many haircuts would she have to give to make
the same profit in either location?

Answer 1

Answer: x = Number of haircuts

Location A profit: 45x-1200

Location B profit: 60x-1800

(Lets assume that the profit is the same for each location)

45x-1200=60x-1800

By solving that we found:

x = 40 Haircuts

Hope this helps!
