Answer:
25 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the equation we see that the thumb drives cost $200 which is why that is being subtracted. To calculate the break-even number of sales we need to make a total of 200 to cover the costs. We calculate this by matching the equation to 0 and solving for x...
0 = 8x - 200 ... add 200 on both sides
200 = 8x ... divide both sides by 8
25 = x
Finally, we can see that the committee will break even after selling 25 thumb drives which would make them $200 to cover all of their costs.
2x-7=29
"Seven less than" => minus 7.
"Two times <u>a number</u>" => 2x (x is the unknown number)
"is twenty-nine" => =29
Putting it all together,
-7 + 2x = 29
or
2x-7=29
(if you were wondering x is equal to 18)
