Answer:

D. 16 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where x is the number of days.

60x will represent his cost to rent the equipment.

35x + 400 will represent his cost if he buys the equipment.

Set these equal to each other and solve for x:

60x = 35x + 400

25x = 400

x = 16

So, the break even point is 16 days.
