Answer :

Answer:

X = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to use would be; 2x + 30 = 5x; because the baker is looking for enough to cover the costs, no more no less.

Then all you have to do is solve for the equation.

2x + 30 = 5x

Subtract 2x from each side

30 = 3x

Divide by 3

10 = x

The baker needs to sell 10 muffins in a day to make enough to cover the revenue.
