Roger gets $40 per day as wages and $4.50 as commission for every pair of shoes he sells in a day. His daily earnings goal is $1
Mila [183]

Answer:

40+4.50x+112

16 shoes daily to make his goal

Step-by-step explanation:

to find how much shoes he would have to sell take away 40 from both sides of the equation which would leave you with 4.50x=72 next divide 4.50 out of both sides of the equation x=16 so he would have to sell 16 pairs of shoes a day to meet his goal

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

8 $10 notes

Step-by-step explanation:

I started by working it backwards. $93-$3 equals $90. So we have three of our 13 notes. We need ten more. Well the most $10 notes we can have is 8. if we had 8 $10 notes that would give us $80. $90-$80=10. We can take ten and divide it by five so we have 2 $5 notes.

So in total he would have 8 $10 notes, 2 $5 notes, and $3 one dollar notes which adds up to 13 notes

Keiko, Chang, and Abdul sent a total of 109 text messages over their cell phones during the weekend. Keiko sent 7 fewer messages
lbvjy [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • Keiko: 17
  • Chang: 24
  • Abdul: 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of messages sent by Chang. Then Keiko sent (c-7) messages, and Abdul sent 4(c-7) messages. The total number sent was ...

  c + (c -7) +4(c -7) = 109

  6c -35 = 109 . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  6c = 144 . . . . . . . . . . . add 35

  c = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

  c-7 = 17

  4(c-7) = 68

Keiko sent 17, Chang sent 24, and Abdul sent 68 text messages.
