Scena works part time selling newspapers over the phone. She is paid 525 per week plum 53 for each newspaper subscription she sells. She wants to carn at least $50 this week What is the least number of newspaper subscriptions she needs to sell?

Answer 1

I guess you mean $5.25 per week + $0.53 * number sold
50 = 5.24 + 0.53 n
0.53 n = 44.76
n = 44.76 / 0.53 = 84.45 so 85
