How do I solve this question? Rayne sold 3 desks at a local trade show. he payed $4.00 to rent the booth. he gave half of his revenue to the carpenter and was left with $185.50. at what price did Rayne sell each desk

Answer:

$125

Step-by-step explanation:

I suspect there's an error in the problem statement.  Revenue is the money made from selling the desks.  Profit is the revenue from the desks minus the cost of the booth rental.

If Rayne gives half of his profit to the carpenter, and x is the price per desk, then:

185.50 = ½ (3x − 4)

371 = 3x − 4

375 = 3x

x = 125
