Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x + 4) - 7 = 48 - 2x ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
7x + 28 - 7 = 48 - 2x
7x + 21 = 48 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )
9x + 21 = 48 ( subtract 21 from both sides )
9x = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x = 3

Answer:
79 is the value
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amount of sales (in dollars)
The salary is $400 and there's an additional 0.06x dollars added on to get to the goal of 790. The equation is therefore
<span>400+0.06x = 790
</span>
Let's solve for x
400+0.06x = 790
<span>400+0.06x-400 = 790-400
</span>0.06x = 390
0.06x/0.06 = 390/0.06
x = 6500
The final answer is 6500
This means he must have $6,500 in sales.
