Answer:

$925,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "t" represent "total sales."

We are asking how much this person must bring in thru sales to end up with $55,000 in earnings.

A suitable equation would be:

$18,000 + 0.04t = $55,000.

Let's isolate t.  Start by subtracting $18,000 from both sides, obtaining:

0.04t = $37,000

Dividing both sides by 0.04 results in t = $925,000.

Her sales must be $925,000 for her income (including earnings) to be $55,000.

zhuklara [117]

Given,

A sign company charges $28 per yard for each custom-made banner.

Ms.Gill orders two banners that are each 178 yards long, and one banner that is 258 yards long.

To find,

Total money paid by Ms. Gill.

Solution,

Total length of 2 banners of 178 yards = 356 yards

Third banner is 258 yards long.

Total length of the banners = 356 + 258

= 614 yards

The cost of each banner = $28 per yards.

Total amount paid by Ms. Gill is :

= $28 × 614

= $17,192

Hence, she will pay $17,192 for all the three banners.
