Base pay + (rate * sales) = total pay
b + r(400) = 388
b + r(700) = 454
b = 388 - 400r
now sub into 2nd equation
388 - 400r + 700r = 454
-400r + 700r = 454 - 388
300r = 66
r = 66/300
r = 0.22...22% is the rate
substitute for r
b + 400r = 388
b + 400(0.22) = 388
b + 88 = 388
b = 388 - 88
b = 300
so ur equation is : y = 0.22x + 300
y = 0.22(2600) + 300
y = 572 + 300
y = 872......so her salary when selling $2600 worth of stuff is $872
First account: $6500
Second account: $8500
Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500
So 1 hour= 60 minutes
60+25= 85 minutes
Now we should subtract the 42
85-42=43
