A toy company's total payment for salaries for the first two months of 2005 is $23,894. Write and solve an equation to find the salaries for the second month if the first month's salaries are $12,455.

12,455 + x = 23,894

x = 11,439

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the variable 'x' represents the salaries for the second month, so out equation would be:

12,455 + x = 23,894

To solve, we must isolate the variable by subtracting 12,455 from both sides:

12,455 + x = 23,894

-12,455        -12,455

x = 11,439

So, the second month's salary was $11,439

Hope this helps :)

Call x is the second month, So we have the following equation

$12,455 + x = $23,894 = > x =$23,894 - $12,455 = $11,439
