T = Total income
N = Number of purses
35N = the selling price of each purse
17N = Cost of each purse
T = 35*N - 17*N - 75
T = 18N - 75
If she wants here total income to be 350 dollars, it will take
T = 350 ; N = unknown.
350 = 18N - 75 Add 75 to both sides.
350 + 75 = 18N
425 = 18N
Rounded N = 24 <<<< Answer. The actually number is 23.611 but you can't sell 0.611 of a purse.
Answer:
more the letter x is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known is is calld a variable or sometimes an unknown. in x+2=7,x is a variable but we can work out its value if we try
Y=-3x+5
the slope is negative because the line is going down from left to right
the y-intercept is 5 because that’s where the line crosses the y-axis
6(x+1)=24
6x+6=24
6x=24-6
6x=18
6x/6=18/6
x=3
2 + 2m = 6 equals
m = 2.
First, subtract 2 from both sides. Your problem should look like: 2m = 6 - 2.
Second, simplify 6 - 2 to get 4. Your problem should look like: 2m = 4.
Third, divide both sides by 2. Your problem should look like: m =
Fourth, simplify

to 2. Your problem should look like: m = 2, which is the answer.
