Corrie decides to expand her pottery business to the Internet. She pays $120 to a company to design and host her website. She
estimates that the material, shipping and handling cost of each
vase will be $24. She plans to sell vases for $46.15 each.
The equation below represents P, her profit in dollars, the first
month.
P=46.15v-24v-120, where v is the number of vases sold.
What is the minimum number of vases she will have to sell to
make a profit of at least $500 the first month?
