Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x=20
Reorder the terms:
(2 + 5x) = 3(x + 14)
Remove parenthesis around (2 + 5x)
2 + 5x = 3(x + 14)
Reorder the terms:
2 + 5x = 3(14 + x)
2 + 5x = (14 * 3 + x * 3)
2 + 5x = (42 + 3x)
Solving
2 + 5x = 42 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
2 + 5x + -3x = 42 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x
2 + 2x = 42 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
2 + 2x = 42 + 0
2 + 2x = 42
Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + 2x = 42 + -2
Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + 2x = 42 + -2
2x = 42 + -2
Combine like terms: 42 + -2 = 40
2x = 40
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 20
Simplifying
x = 20
The equation that best represents the total earnings for the salesman is letter c which is e=40,000+200 xc
It is because, in order to get the full earnings, you have to add the base salary to the commission that the salesman receives. Whereas, the $40,000 is attached to the commission where the $200 is multiplied to c (every car the salesman sells
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9). -2.2(4 - 1.9x) = 3.3(0.2x - 0.8)
-8.8 + 2.2(1.9x) = 0.66x - 2.64
-8.8 + 4.18x = 0.66x - 2.64
4.18x - 0.66x = 8.8 - 2.64
3.52x = 6.16
x = 1.75
10). 3.2(1 + 2.6x) = 2.4(x - 3.6)
3.2 + 8.32x = 2.4x - 8.64
8.32x - 2.4x = -3.2 - 8.64
5.92x = -11.84
x = 2
11). 4.6(2x - 5.5) = 3.9 + 0.8(1 + 5.5x)
9.2x - 25.3 = 3.9 + 0.8 + 4.4x
9.2x - 25.3 = 4.7 + 4.4x
9.2x - 4.4x = 25.3 + 4.7
4.8x = 30
x = 6.25
12). 0.2(3x + 2.5) - 4.9 = 3.8 - 2.2(x - 5.5)
0.6x + 0.5 - 4.9 = 3.8 - 2.2x + 12.10
0.6x - 4.4 = -2.2x + 15.90
0.6x + 2.2x = 15.90 + 4.4
2.8x = 20.30
x = 7.25
