Convert "3/4 ton" into pounds.  Use the identity 2000 lb = 1 ton.
                                     2000 lb           1500 lb
Then       [(3/4) ton] * ---------------- = ----------------
                                        1 ton                 1

Now divide 1500 lb by 4 lb 14 oz.  Note that 4 lb 14 oz = 4 14/16 lb, or
4 7/8 lb, or 4.875 lb.

Then, divide 1500 lb by

4.875 lb 
------------ to determine the number of bricks the truck can safely carry.
 1 brick

This comes out to 1500/4.875 bricks, or approx. 307 bricks.

Answer:

His total earnings for sales of $948 is $425.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the percentage of his commission be a percentage with its value represented as x and b be his base salary , y as his total earnings

So we have;

y = x% of sales + base salary

for 849 sales and 417.92 , we have

417.92 = 8.49x + b •••••••(i)

for 1011 sales and 430.88 servings

430.88 = 10.11x + b ••••••(ii)

Subtract i from ii

12.96 = 1.62x

x = 12.96/1.62

x = 8

To get b, we substitute

430.88 = 10.11(8) + b

b = 430.88 - 10.11(8) = 350

Commission is 8% , base earnings is $350

So for total sales of 948;

y = 8% of 948 + 350

y = $425.84
