What is an equation?

A statement of equality between two expressions made up of variables and/or integers is called an equation. In essence, equations are questions, and the reason for the advancement of mathematics has been the systematic search for the answers to these questions.

Given:

profit per shirt = $5

set up costs = $40

profit per magazine = $4

Let us assume S = shirts, C = setup costs, M = magazine

So, we can write the equation

5S - C = 4M

The profit from shirts and magazines are same. So, S = M

5S - 40 = 4S

5S - 4S = 40

S = 40

The school’s band members sold 40 shirts and 40 magazine subscriptions.
