To find the total revenue for any object, you simply multiply the price of the object by the number of units sold.

In this case, the revenue for helments would be 3*14, and the revenue for bicycles would be 125*b.

Knowing that total revenue was 917, we can form an equation:

125b + 3*14 = 917

125b + 42 = 917

Subtract both sides by 42:

125b = 875

b = 7

m = 4a + 2c

a = 25; c = 5

Replace a with 25. Replace c with 5.
Then evaluate the expression.

m = 4 * 25 + 2 * 5

m = 100 + 10

m = 110

Answer: 110 meatballs are needed.

You want to ship textbooks from Florida. The textbooks are $60 each plus $150 shipping. Let x represent the number of textbooks

sertanlavr [38]

I am assuming the problem is asking you to find an equation repersenting the situation.

In this case, realize that 150 will be a constant, and 60 will be attached to the $x$ variable, since the price of the textbooks changes based on how many textbooks there are.
