I’m not sure if this is correct but this is the way i would solve it.
first, make an equation with the given information
2x-3=30
Then, add three to both sides
2x=33
Finally, divide both sides by 2
x= 16.5
x represents the age of maggie so all you have to do is plug the solution into the equation to check your answer.
2(16.5)-3= 30

Answer:
10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 60 is the profit you need to make, you plug in 60 into P(x). So, you get the equation 60=0.3
+7x-40. The answer to this equation is 10. I think this is the correct answer.
The answer is 40 because once you have 21 your just adding 19 and then that makes it 40.
