Answer:

Roger's profit = %0.5 (I) - $7

The minimum number of cups of  lemonade you have to sell in order to make a profit = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Roger spends $7 to buy supplies for making lemonade.

Cost price = $7

He  plans to sell each cup of lemonade for $0.50.

Selling price of one cup of lemonade = $ 0.5

Selling price of I cups = $0.5 (I)

(i) The equation that repesents profit earned by Roger is

Profit = Selling price - cost price

Profit = %0.5 (I) - $7

(ii) the minimum number of cups of  lemonade you have to sell in order to make a profit is

By selling minimum 15 cups, the profit earned is

Profit = %0.5 (15) - $7

Profit = $0.5
