The answer to this equation would be 10!
Steps:
Add 3 to both sides of the equation this would add 3 to 37 making it 40 and when you add 3 to -3 it cancel out so the new equation should look like this!
4x=40
The next step is to divide both sides by four and you get the answer!
X=10
We make two sets of equations: x + y = 106 and 0.05x + 0.25y = 13.70. I will solve by substitution. Subtract "x" from both sides of x + y = 106 to convert it to slope intercept form, so y = 106 - x. Substitute y = 106 - x into 0.05x + 0.25y = 13.70, so 0.05x + 0.25(106 - x) = 13.70. Solve for 0.05x + 0.25(106 - x) = 13.70, so 26.5 - 0.2x = 13.7, then x = 64. Substitute 64 into x + y = 106, so 64 + y = 106, then y = 42. There is 64 nickels and 42 quarters.
Based on the amount that both Salesmen A and B earn per sale, the number of sales they both had was 12 sales.
<h3>How many sales did Salesmen A and B have?</h3>
Sales commission is a key aspect of sales compensation. It's the amount of money a salesperson earns based on the number of sales they have been able to make.
We are told that;
Salesman A gets $65 per sale.
Salesman B gets $300 and $40 per sale.
Assuming the number of sales to take them both to the same amount is x, the relevant formulas would be:
65x = 300 + 40x
Rearranging gives;
65x - 40x = 300
25x = 300
x = 300/25
x = 12 sales
The amount that salesman A earned is = 65 * 12 = $780
The amount that salesman B earned is = 300 + (40 * 12) = $780
