Answer
There a 9 fries for every 14 orders of watermelon.
7(x-2) + 3(x + 2) = 5(x-6)...distribute thru the parenthesis
7x - 14 + 3x + 6 = 5x - 30...combine like terms
10x - 8 = 5x - 30...subtract 5x from both sides
10x - 5x - 8 = -30....add 8 to both sides
10x - 5x = -30 + 8...combine like terms
5x = - 22
x = -22/5 = - 4 2/5 <==
Answer:
at least $1,050,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Deandre's salary will be ...
12000 + 0.06·sales
He wants that to be at least 75000, so the sales must meet the requirement ...
12000 + 0.06·sales ≥ 75000
0.06·sales ≥ 63000 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12000
sales ≥ 63000/0.06 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 0.06
sales ≥ 1,050,000 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .evaluate
He will need to have at least $1,050,000 in total sales to have a yearly income at least $75,000.
