This week, michael collected $468 for delivering newspapers. he had 40 repeat customers and 18 new ones. as an incentive, he charged the new subscribers $3 less than the repeat customers. if x represents the amount michael collects from each repeat customer, which equation models this problem?

Equation will be 40x + 18(x - 3) = 468

Step-by-step explanation:

If 'x' represents the amount Michael collects from each repeat customers then amount collected from 40 customers = 40x

If he charged $3 less than the repeat customers then amount charged from 18 customers = $18(x - 3)

Total amount he collected = $468

Therefore, the equation modeling the situation will be

Amount collected from repeated customers + Amount collected from new customers = Total amount collected

40x + 18(x - 3) = 468
