Answer:

70 Bikes

Step-by-step explanation:

[using b as a variable for bikes]

2800=-50b+90b

[2800 is total cost of store with-50 being cost per bike and 90 being selling point of bike]

2800=40b [simplified by combining -50 with 90]

70=b [divided 2800 by 40 to get the break even for the store]
