Answer 1

Answer: 1)
`A = 28ft^(2)`

2) 55 points

Explanation:

1) A= 8w + 18, w=1.25

A = 8(1.25) + 18

A = 10 + 18

A = 28ft^2

2) 25 points to start with, additional 5 points per magazine they sell, m = number of magazines they sell

total points = 25 + 5m

How many if they sell 6?

total = 25 + 5(6)

= 25 + 30

total = 55
