@SolomonZelman

OpenStudy (anonymous):

600 + 200c = monthly pay.....c stands for # of computers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it says any number of months

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait...that might not be right. That is giving you her monthly salary depending on the number of computers that are sold.....not the months...sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so shouldn't it be y=600m+200c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't that correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes....600m + 200c....thats got to be it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what variable would come instead of y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

s i guess because s=salary

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would work...S or maybe T, total salary....I don't think it really matters

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it does u Haven't SEEN MY MATH TEACHER HE CARES ABOUT WHAT VARIABLES U USE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or P for pay ....the variable does not matter as long as you explain what the variable stands for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry that your pain in the butt teacher does not see it that way
