Consider the following situation. A company purchased computers for each employee and two all-in- one printer/copiers. Each computer costs $975 and each all-in-one printer/copier costs $2,300. The function C(x)=975x + 4600 repre- sents the cost of the equipment or- dered, where x represents the number of employees. A 7% sales tax and a $500 shipping fee is added to the final order. The grand total of the equipment order is given by the function G(c)=1.07c+500, where c is the cost of the equipment ordered. Based on this information, how many employees are employed at this com- pany if the grand total of the order is $44,022.25?

dered, where x represents the
number of employees.
A 7% sales tax and a $500 shipping
fee is added to the final order. The
grand total of the equipment order
is given by the function
G(c)=1.07c+500, where c is the
cost of the equipment ordered.
Based on this information, how many employees are employed at this com-
pany if the grand total of the order is $44,022.25?
