Explanation:

First

we apply the percent rate to each sales level

for example

advertizing for sales 200,000 x 4% = 8,000

Second,

we add them to get total variable

Third,

we add all the fixed cost together

Forth,

and last, we calculate the total cost.

x=3

step-by-step explanation:

this is really simple i saw that there was only one term (5x) and thought if that was 15 what would i have to multiply everything else to get it there? well if 5x became 15 then x would have to be 3 so plug the 3 in the x for the other equations and you get 15 for the other ones. so there you go. : )
