Problem 3
The constant term is 290. This is the term that stays the same no matter what the value of 'a' happens to be. Contrast this with the variable term 2.50a which changes if 'a' changes (hence the name "variable" for "vary" or "change")
If Mike sold 0 accessories, then a = 0 and the expression would be
2.50*a + 290 = 2.50*0 + 290 = 290
Selling 0 accessories leads to $290. This is the amount he is guaranteed with the 2.50a portion being additional money to motivate him to sell more.

Answer: Choice (3) 290, amount he is guaranteed
======================================
Problem 4
Plug y = 0 into the equation. Solve for x
9x - 14y = -3
9x - 14*0 = -3 .... replace y with 0
9x - 0 = -3
9x = -3
9x/9 = -3/9 ... divide both sides by 9
x = -3/9
x = -1/3

Answer: Choice (3) which is -1/3

Answer:
- $9,000 at 15%
- $4,000 at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount borrowed at 15%. Then the amount borrowed at 10% is (13000-x). The interest at the end of the year is ...
0.15(x) + 0.10(13000 -x) = 1750
0.05x = 1750 -1300 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 1300
x = 450(20) = 9000 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 20
$9,000 was borrowed at 15%; $4,000 was borrowed at 10%.
Answer:
