Hans is a software salesman. His base salary is $2500, and he makes an additional $110 for every copy of English is Fun he sells.Let P represent his total pay (in dollars), and let N represent the number of copies of English is Fun he sells. Write an equation relating P to N . Then use this equation to find his total pay if he sells 22 copies of English is Fun.

and he earns an extra 110 per book, so that will be 110x where x= # of books sold
OpenStudy (rocklionmba):
so then the formula is...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Haichi please help me
OpenStudy (rocklionmba):
ok. so we know that 2500 is going to be added. so that's
?+2500=P
OpenStudy (haichi):
4920=2500+110*22

so that's 110x+2500=P
OpenStudy (haichi):
p=4920

so there is no "N" in the equation??
OpenStudy (haichi):
N is 22
OpenStudy (rocklionmba):
n =x
OpenStudy (rocklionmba):
I just decided to use x instead of n because I like it better
OpenStudy (haichi):

so the equation that yopu created is 110x +2500=P ?
OpenStudy (rocklionmba):
yes
OpenStudy (haichi):
110(22) +2500=4920
OpenStudy (rocklionmba):
because he sold a total of 22 books which is our x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the number of books sold is 4920??
