Sandra's salary in the previous year was $48,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the expression given is missing the $2000 more that she earns this year.

0.14 (x +2000) =7000

Where:

Solving for x :

0.14(x) +0.14 (2000) =7000

0.14x +280 =7000

0.14 x = 7000-280

0.14x = 6720

x = 6720/0.14

x=48,000

Sandra's salary in the previous year was $48,000

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

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:

-60.75

step-by-step explanation:

just add the numbers then put the negative sign on it
