Answer:
X=$5000 in sales
Step-by-step explanation:
You can write an equation in slope-intercept to find an answer.
<em>y=0.2x+1000</em>, 20% commission is the slope and the base pay is the y-intercept.
Now, just plug in 2000 for y.
<em>2000</em><em>=</em><em>0.2x</em><em>+</em><em>1000,</em><em> </em>subtract 1000.
<em>1000</em><em>=</em><em>0.2x,</em><em> </em>Multiply by 5 to get x by itself.
<em>5000</em><em>=</em><em>x</em><em>.</em>
