X=number of years that Ethas was 5 times older than his son.
we suggest this equation:

40-x=5(12-x)
40-x=60-5x
-x+5x=60-40
4x=20
x=20/4=5

answer. 5 years.

A camera manufacturer spends $2,100 each day for overhead expenses plus $9 per camera for labor and materials. The cameras sell
alexandr402 [8]

Here, first we need to find the number of cameras that can be sold, so that total costs are equal to total revenues.

Let the number of cameras that can be sold be "x".

Total revenue = $ 14x

Total costs will be = $ 2100 + $9x

So, the equation that will be formed ⇒

14 x = 2100 + 9x

5x = 2100

x = 420

<u>Thus, in order to make total costs equal to total revenues, 420 cameras are required to be sold.</u>

If instead of 420, 470 cameras are sold, the daily profit will be calculated as under -

Total revenue = $ 14 × 470 cameras = $ 6,580

Total costs = $ 2100 + ( $ 9 × 470 cameras) = $ 6,330

<u>Daily profit = Total revenue - Total costs = $ 6,580 - $ 6,330 = $ 250</u>
