This is probably baby math to you but i just need help on how to do it/ break it down so its simpler :l

Directrix (directrix):

No problem is baby math to me. A problem is hard if I cannot do it. A problem is easy if I can do it.

OpenStudy (xcecex):

Oh, well then >_>

Directrix (directrix):

Assumption: Meg and Ritch worked together on the same cars. Meg: 5.40 per car --> income is 5.40 * c + 5 Ritch: 3.20 per car --> income is 3.20 * c + 8

OpenStudy (xcecex):

Right, so then now that i know their incomes what do i do next?

Directrix (directrix):

Which simplified expression represents the total amount of money they earned? M + R = 5.40 * c + 5 + 3.20 * c + 8 = ? @XceceX

Directrix (directrix):

5.40 * c + 3.20 * c + 8 + 5 =

Directrix (directrix):

Post what you get, okay?

OpenStudy (xcecex):

Okay :)

OpenStudy (xcecex):

21.6c? @Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

No.

Directrix (directrix):

5.40 * c + 3.20 * c = 8.60 c 8 + 5 = 13 8.60 c + 13 = which option. --> look above 8.60c and 13 are not like terms.

Directrix (directrix):
