So he needs to sell $2,000 in merchandise.

<h3>what is the total value of merchandise he needs to sell?</h3>

We can assume that we have a proportional relation:

y = k*x

Where y is the commission and x is what Norman sells, then:

$15 = k*$200

k = $200/$15 = 0.075

$37.50 = k*$500

k = $500/$37.50 = 0.075

Then the relation is:

y = 0.075*x

If he wants a commission of $150, then:

$150 = 0.075*x

$150/0.075 = x = $2,000

So he needs to sell $2,000 in merchandise.

Two sevenths of a number subtracted from two fifths of that same number is 8. find the number
Allisa [31]
2/7x - 2/5x = 8
multiply both sides by 35
= 10x - 14x = 280
combine 10x and 14x
= -4x = 280
divide both sides by -4
x= -70
