Step-by-step explanation:

I take it that the $69 flat fee is for one event.

and we are talking about one event overall.

"breaking even" means that the sum of all expenses and revenues is 0.

so, with x being the number of attendees,

0 = 18x - 15x - 69

69 = 3x

x = 23

that means, with 23 attendees they will break even, and with every attendee more they will gain.

in the case of 23 attendees the company will have expenses of 69 + 23×15 = $414.

and the revenues are 23×18 = $414
