T = Television advertising
M = Magazine advertising
"television advertising should be 3.5 times as much as the amount spent on magazine advertising": T = 3.5M
"The company plans to spend $28 million on advertising": T + M = 28,000,000
substitute T + M = 28000000
(3.5M) + M = 28000000
4.5M. = 28000000
M = $6,222,222.22
subsitute
T = 3.5M
T = 3.5(6,222,222.22)
T = $21,777,777.77
