Given: julianne total startup cost = $52000

Operating cost per day =$680

Earn money from her lesson fee per day = $960

Find out the inequality of situation

Given d be the number of days

To proof: julianne spends on operating cost in d day = $680d

julianne earn from lesson fee in d day = $960d

Total profit in d day = 960d-680d

Part A) Total profit should be greater than 52000. Because this is startup investment.

According to question inequality becomes

[tex]960d-680d\geq52000[/tex]

Part B) Now solve for d

[tex]280d\geq 52000[/tex]

[tex]d\geq 185.7[/tex]

After 186 days, Julianne will get profit from dance studio.
