Question

~Please I really need help~ Alex works as a carpenter making wooden tables. He is guaranteed a base pay of

$300 per week, and also earns $50 per completed table. Write an equation to
determine Alex's weekly pay. He hopes to make at least $800 per week. How many
tables per week does he need to make?

Answer 1

Alex needs to make 10 tables per week.

Explanation:

If his base pay is $300, then subtract it from $800, you get $500. Then divide $500 by how much Alex earns per table, $50, then you get 10. Alex needs to make 10 tables per week.
