Set it up as an equation. "A number" is x.
2x-2=x+64
Move all of the x terms to one side by subtracting x from both sides, then add 2 to both sides to isolate x.
X=66
The number is 66
Answer:
66 jars of jam
Step-by-step explanation:
Elizabeth is selling jam at a farmers market.
She earns $5 for each jar of Jan that she sells
Her goal is to earn $450 during the weekend.
Elizabeth has already made $95 from the sale of her jams and $24 from leading a demonstration
Therefore the total amount that has been made is
= $95 + $24
= $119
Since her target is $450 and she has already made $119 then the amount remaining to complete the target can be calculated as follows
= $450 - $119
= $331
The minimum number of jars that Elizabeth must sell to realize her goal can be calculated as follows
= 331/5
= 66
Hence Elizabeth must sell 66 jars of jam to reach her goal.
