    The club must sell 1000 newsletters.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be the number of newsletter must the club sell to break even,

    Since, the expenses are $0.90 for printing and mailing each cop plus $600,

    So, the total expenses for x newsletters = 0.90 x + 600,

    Also, The price is the newsletter is $1.50 per copy,

    ⇒ Total revenue after selling x newsletter = 1.50 x

    To break even,

    Total Revenue = Total expenses

    ⇒ 1.50x = 0.90x + 600

    ⇒ 0.60 x = 600 (Subtract 0.90x both sides)

    ⇒ x = 1000 (Divide both sides by 0.60)

    Hence, 1000 newsletter must be sold to break even.
