Based on the information available ; because the question seems incomplete ;

Answer:

0.389x + 65.556

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Wage as nail technician = $5.50

Wage for hair = $9.00

Total wage earned = $590

Let :

number of hairs done = x

Number of nails fixed = y

To calculate the total appointment, y

5.50x + 9y = 590

Express y in terms x :

9y = 590 - 5.50x

Divide through by 9

y = (590 - 5.50x) / 9

y = 65.556 - 0.611x

x + y =?

x + 65.556 - 0.611x

0.389x + 65.556
