Problema Solution
A hairdresser is deciding where to open her own studio. If the hairdresser chooses Location A, she will pay $1200 per month in rent and will charge $60 per haircut. If she chooses Location B, she will pay $1800 per month, and $45 dollars per haircut. How many haircuts would she have to give in one month to make the same profit at either location?

Let x be the number of hair cuts.
1200+60x=1800+45x.
60x-45x=1800-1200.
15x=600.
x=600/15
=40.
