Answer:
3000 books
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the author receives a one time fee of $2500. On top of that, the author will receive $1.50 per book sold. This is a constant rate and is linear because of this. We can use y=mx+b. M is the slope or rate of change. M here is $1.50. B is the starting value which is $2500 here.
We write y=1.5x+2500.
This equation will give the amount of money the author earns for x number of books sold. If y=7000 for the author earning 7000. We will use inverse operations to isolate and find x.
7000=1.5x+2500
7000-2500=1.5x+2500-2500
4500=1.5x
4500/1.5=x
3000=x
Answer:

Answer:
Is that thick line an equal or a minis sign? I cant see it.
Firstly, you need to combine like terms within that side of the equation.
Take -3x +9x and you’ll get 6x.
Next, combine like terms on the other side of the equation.
Take -5-1 and you’ll get -6
So far you should have:
6x+2=4x-6
Subtract 4x on each side!! Cancel 4x-4x! Solve 6x-4x!
Now you’ll get:
2x+2=-6
Subtract 2 on each side!!
Cancel out 2-2 and solve -6-2.
You should get:
2x=-8
Lastly, divide 2 on each side.
Cancel out 2/2 and solve 8/2.
Your final answer should be:
X = -4
