X would represent the total number of tests Jake took

In your equation 85x - 15 . . . . 

 - The 85 is the score that Jake makes each time. 
 - The x is the number of tests Jake takes. 
 - And the -15 means that you would subtract 15 from Jake's total score (85x) 
 - All this will equal your answer to the equation which is Mikes total score. 

The question is asking what does x represent. 
Therefor the answer would be B. The total number of tests Jake took

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of components assembled by the new employee per day,

N(t) = \frac{50t}{t+4}

Number of components assembled by the experienced employee per day,

E(t) = \frac{70t}{t+3}

Difference in number of components assembled per day by experienced ane new employee

D(t)= E(t) - N(t)

D(t) = \frac{70t}{t+3}-\frac{50t}{t+4}

      = \frac{70t(t+4)-50t(t+3)}{(t+3)(t+4)}

      = \frac{70t^2+280t-50t^2-150t}{(t+3)(t+4)}

      = \frac{20t^2+130t}{(t+3)(t+4)}

      = \frac{10t(2t+13)}{(t+4)(t+3)}

Therefore, Option A will be the answer.
