Esmeralda has decided that every month, for as long as she can afford it, she’s going to donate $250 to a charity that helps fund research on treatments for cancer. Esmeralda sticks to her word and continues donating for 2 years. Determine how many more months she can afford to donate if the starting balance on her account is $8000.

the answer is a if my teacher taught me correct

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6

for this case we must apply distributive property to the following expression:

the distributive property states that:

then, when applying the property we have to multiply the -2 for each term within the parenthesis:

the answer is 0052
