Sally's CDs to Ray's CDs = 2:7
2 + 7 = 9
Ray's Cds to all CDs is 7:9

2x + 7x = 9x

2x + 49 = 9x

-7x = -49

x = 7

Ray has 7x = 49
Sally has 2x = 14

14:49 is the same as 2:7

Ray has 49 CDs. Sally had 14 CDs.
Ray gives 21 CDs to Sally.

Ray: 49 - 21 = 28
Sally: 14 + 21 = 35

Sally's CDs to Ray's CDs = 35:28 = 5:4

Aaron uses the equation y=500+0.2x to determine his weekly paycheck based on his sales volume, where y represents the amount of
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1050 units

Explanations:

Given the equation y=500+0.2x to determine his weekly paycheck based on his sales volume, where:

y is the amount of his check

x is the number of units he sells each month.

In order to determine the amount of units he would need to sell for his paycheck to be $710, we willl substitute y = 710 into the equation and find the value of x as shown:

y=500+0.2x

710 = 500+0.2x

710-500 = 0.2x

210 = 0.2x

0.2x = 210

Divide both sides by 0.2

0.2x/0.2 = 210/0.2

x = 1050

Hence he would need 1,050 units to sell for his paycheck to be $710
