Kathy is a repair technician for a phone company,

Each weck, she receives a batch of phones that need
repairs. The number of phones that she has left to fix
at the end of each day can be estimated with the
equation P = 108 - 23d, where P is the number of
phones left and d is the number of days she has
worked that week. What is the meaning of the
value 108 in this equation?​

108 is the total number of phones Kathy has for the week. Each day, she repairs 23 of the them. So, the more days the more phones are fixed. 108 would get subtracted by the 23D, D depending on how many days she has been repairing phones, and that would give the answer to P. A little confusing and hard to explain, but hope this helped nonetheless. :)
