Amie published her first book. She was given $20,000 and an additional $0.15 for each copy sold. Her earnings, \(d\), in dollars, from the publication of the book are given by \(d = 20,000 + 0.15n\), where \(n\) is the number of copies sold.

During the first year, Amie earned $22,100 from the publication and sale of her book. How many copies of her book were sold?

d=20,009 + 0.15n $22,100 = 20,009 + 0.15n $2091 = 0.15n n = 2091/.15 = 13940
