Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

The number is more by three than a multiple of of 5 (i.e 5x +3) and more than 2 than a multiple of 4 (ie 4y+2(

Now 5x+3=4y+2

ie 5x +1 =4y

we need to give the lowest pair of values to x and y such that the last equality is satisfied.

By trial, x = 3 and y = 4

thus the number is 5x+3 =5(3)+3 =18=4y+2 =4(4)+2=18

I hope it has helped you.

aliina [53]

Answer: Daria earns a fixed amount of $55 for each television.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a represent the fixed amount that Daria earns for each television.
Daria earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $25 if the buyer gets an extended warranty. This means that if she sells b televisions with extended warranties, the total amount that she would earn is
ab + 25b
If Daria sells 14 televisions with extended warranties,she earns $1,120. Therefore,
14a + 14 × 25 = 1120
14a + 350 = 1120
14a = 1120 - 350
14a = 770
a = 770/14
a = 55
