Question

HELPPPPP PLEASEEEE!!!!!! Just number 9

Answer 1

`\text{Hey there!}`

`\text{Equation for company \#1: \$42 + \$0.05x}`

`\text{Equation for company \#2 \$ 0.08}`

`\text{Now, let's solve for your equations, shall we?}`

`\text{First set the overall equation up.}`

`\text{42 + 0.05x = 0.08x}`

`\text{Which is reverse back to: 0.08x - 0.05x = 42}`

`\text{0.08x - 0.05x = 0.03x}`

`\text{New equation (for now) 0.03x = 42}`

`\text{Divide each term by 0.03}`

`\frac{\text{0.03x}}{0.03}=(42)/(0.03)`

`\text{Cancel out:\ } \frac{\text{0.03}}{0.03}\text{ because it equals 1}`

`\text{Keep:\ }(42)/(0.03)\text{ because it helps us solve for our answer!}`

`(42)/(0.03) = 42/0.03 \rightarrow 1,400`

`\text{Total: 1,400 pgs. (pages)}`

`\boxed{\boxed{\text{\bf{Answer should be:1,400 pages}}}}\checkmark`

`\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}`
