There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)

Answer:
Agency C offers the least expensive overall fee
Step-by-step explanation:
Alone from gross salary, you would make 24000 a year.
Agency A
24000 - ( 2000 x 0.5)
= 23,000
$1000 fee
Agency B
24000 - ( 2000 x 0.1 ) x 6
= 24000 - 200 x 6
= 24000 - 1200
= 22,800
$1200 fee
Agency C
24000 - (500 + 100)
= 24000 - 600
= 23,400
$600 fee
215% of 18
You must change 215% into a decimal by multiplying by 100 which is 2.15

2.15×18=38.7
Then you estimate to the nearest whole number
38.7⇒39
You answer is 38.7
Your answer is 39 estimated
