Question

28 items but I don't know how to Provide your conclusion as a complete sentence

xapproachesinfinity · Answer

what she earns depends on the items she sells
let x be the number of items sold
so 25x is what she earns without the base weekly payment

so with the 100 it would be 25x+100
you need to set so that she earns at least 700

her earning is this equation y=2x+10
