 PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.
 For this case we have the following variable:
 p = number of pairs of shoes
 The equation that represents the problem is:
 f (p) = 4.50p + 40
 To achieve your daily goal we have:
 4.50p + 40 = 112
 We clear the value of p =
 4.50p = 112-40
 p = 72 / 4.50
 p = 16 (pair of shoes)
 Answer:
 an equation to determine how many pairs of shoes, p, Roger must sell in a day to meet his daily earnings goal is:
 f (p) = 4.50p + 40
 the number of pairs of shoes he must sell to meet his daily earnings goal is: 
 p = 16 (pair of shoes)
