anonymous · Answer

Not quite, how did you come up with those answers?

anonymous · Answer

for number 10 I took 4.95+0.07=5.02(73)=$36.46
and for number 11. i took 4.95+0.07=5.02(29)=145.58                 those numbers in my work i got from question and problem

anonymous · Answer

Where did you get 5.02 from?

anonymous · Answer

that's what the numbers add up and equal

anonymous · Answer

the numbers i added 5.02 is the result

anonymous · Answer

Oh, you added 4.95 and .07!
They are not like terms because 0.07 is multiplied by "x" therefor you can't add them. 

Here try solving it this way:
Plug in 73 for x. Making the equation:
4.95+0.07(73)

anonymous · Answer

they don't have o be like terms for 10 and 11
