Aused electronics store pays $40 for each cell phone, spends $25 refurbishing the phone, and sells the refurbished phone to a customer for $100. write an expression in simplest form that represents the company's earnings (in dollars) from buying, processing, and selling cell phones. use x to represent the number of cell phones they sell.

The two expenses for the phones is $40 and $25 per phone. It is sold for $100. The amount of earnings is the sale price of the phone minus the expense for the phone. Let x be the number of phones they sell and y be the earnings. The expression is:

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
