larisa [96]

Hey there!

Let's call this "number" x. We want four times the sum of this number and 15 to equal at least 120.

Therefore, we want this number times four plus fifteen to be greater than or equal to 120. We have:

4(x+15)\geq 120

Distribute:

4x + 60 \geq 120

Subtract:

4x\geq 60

Divide:

x\geq 15

Your answer is C.

Hope this helps!

Thepotemich [5.8K]
Floyd's contract consists of
(i) $200 per month fixed.
(i) $12 per album sold.

Let x =  number of albums sold last month.
Because total earnings is $644, therefore
200 + 12x = 644

To find x, do the following:
Subtract 200 from each side.
12x = 644 - 200 = 444
Divide each side by 12.
x = 444/12 = 37

Answer:
The equation is 12x + 200 = 644.
The solution for x (number of albums sold) is 37.
