Andrew and Aiden work at a furniture store. Andrew is paid $235 per week plus 9%

of his total sales in dollars, X, which can be represented by g(x) = 235 +0.09r.
Aiden is paid $1375 per week plus 1.5% of his total sales in dollars, X, which can be
represented by f(x) = 1375 +0.015x. Determine the value of x, in dollars, that
will make their weekly pay the same.
