Answer :
assuming they're expecting to sell at the same rate:
first we divide the number of hams sold by the time it took to sell them
23/4=5.75
this is is the rate per hour at which the hams are being sold
y=23+h
h=5.75*x
in these two equations, y=the total number of hams sold and x= the number of hours the store is open after the first 4 hours
