Not sure what you’re asking ? but
move the terms
-5x+20-a
divide both sides
x=-4+1/5a
solution:
x=-4+1/5a
Profit for August: x
Profit for September: x - 22%x
Total Profit for August & September: $689,000
x + x - 22% x = 689,000
2x - .22x = 689,000
1.78x = 689,000
x = 689,000/1.78
x = 387,078.65
August Profits: $387,078.65
September Profits: 387,078.65 - (22%)(387,078.65) = 387,078.65 - 85,157.30 = 301,921.35
August Profits: $387,078.65
September Profits
$301,921.35

Well, we need to find the area of the cake. 22.5 times 10 is 225. That is the area then we need to find the area of each piece of cake. 2.5 times 2.5 is 6.26.
so divide the area of the cake by the area of each piece to find how many pieces can be cut.
225/6.25=36 36 pieces of cake can be cut from the cake
