Answer:

(x+22) + x = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

if x is how much your friend collected, then how much you collected would be x + 22 because you collected 22 more then her. and if you add both of those together to get how much you collected together (the total) you get 88. so x (your friends sea shells) plus x+22 (your sea shells) is 88. tell me if you also need help solving the actual equation

you have x+22 + x = 88

you combine like terms, in this case the Xs

and you get 2x + 22 = 88

then you subtract 22 to both sides because you want to get x alone

and you get 2x = 88 - 22

which is 2x = 66

then you divide by 2 on both sides

and you get x = 66/2

and you get x = 33

Equations: x+y=88 and y=x+22. (where x=your friend’s seashells and y=your seashells). This is your equation because you are told that you collect 22 MORE than your friend so you have to add 22 to the amount your friend collects to get how many you collected. We also know there are 88 in total between you and your friend so the x+y represents that.
To solve you can input x+22 for y into the first equation to get that x+x+22=88. Next you simplify and solve to find that x=33(this tells you that your friend collected 33 shells). Next you plug in the 33 for x into either equation and solve. The second one would be easier so we could do 33+22=y. We then know y=55 and this is how many shells you collected. Hope this helps and explains how you do it well :)

A local salesman receives a base salary of $975 monthly. He also receives a commission of 7% on all sales over $1250. How much w
slava [35]

Answer:

  $17,321.43

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of monthly income from commissions would have to be ...

  $2100 -975 = $1125

This is 7% of sales over $1250, so the sales (s) would need to be ...

  1125 = 0.07(s -1250)

  1125 = .07s -87.50 . . eliminate parentheses

  1212.50 = 0.07s . . . . add 87.50

  17,321.43 = s . . . . . . . divide by 0.07

He would have to sell $17,321.43 in a month if he needed an income of $2100.

Suppose that for a certain company ​C(x)=35x+300,000 represents the total cost​ function, and ​R(x)=75x represents the total rev
enyata [817]

Answer:

40x - 300,000

7,500

Step-by-step explanation:

profit  = revenue - cost

p(x) = 75x - (35x + 300,000)

p(x) = 40x - 300,000

Break even is when profit is zero

40x - 300,000 = 0

40x = 300,000

x = 7,500
