Step-by-step explanation:

13 = total for brushes

each paintings cost for canvas and paint = 35

13 fixed cost

he earns a profit of $1 per painting so after 13 painting he will have paid for the $13 brushes and have broke even in total he would have earned   36x13=468

Answer 2

The number of paintings is = 13

He has earned = $468

Let he will sell x paintings.

Given: He just bought some brushes for $13, and paint and canvas for each painting costs $35.

So total cost will be 13 + 35x.

Given: he will sell each painting for $36.

So total selling price = 36x.

For breakeven:

$13+35x=36x\\x=13$

So Bob have earned = 36x = 36(13) = 468.
