He can earn any amount between these two values
To solve for x just isolate x by moving the other variables so....:
First add c to both sides
g+c= y+x
Subtract y from both sides
g+c-y= x
That should be your final answer (we cannot come up with an actual digit for x because there are no numbers in this equation we simply can make an equation for x)
Let e=erasers and p=pencils. So we know the total amount of erasers plus pencils sold is equal to 220. Therefore,

We also know the cost of erasers and pencils totaled to $695 in earnings and so:

and so those are your two equations.
