Let x represent the number of students in Janelle’s group.
If Janelle brings 3 markers for each person in her group, then she brings 3x markers for x students. You also know that she brings <span>5 extra markers for everyone to share. Thus, the total amount of markers she brings is 3x+5.
</span>
If Janelle brings in 23 markers in all, then the equation <span><span>3x+5=23 </span> represaents the mathematical model. </span>
3x=23-5,3x=18,x=6
Answer: there are 6 students in Janelle's group.
The question you've asked and the question on the attachment are different.
6691 ÷ 28 = 238.9642857
2409 ÷ 19 = 126.7894737
Let x = amount of sales (in dollars)
The salary is $400 and there's an additional 0.06x dollars added on to get to the goal of 790. The equation is therefore
<span>400+0.06x = 790
</span>
Let's solve for x
400+0.06x = 790
<span>400+0.06x-400 = 790-400
</span>0.06x = 390
0.06x/0.06 = 390/0.06
x = 6500
The final answer is 6500
This means he must have $6,500 in sales.
