Answer: When sales are greater than 2000 then  José's monthly earnings sre more than those of Maris.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  x= Total sales

For José, monthly salary = $3,500

Commission percentage =  8% =0.08

Monthly earnings= Monthly salary + (Commission percentage) x (Total sales)

Monthly earnings= 3500 +0.08 x

For Maris, monthly salary = $3,900

Commission percentage =  6%

Monthly earnings= 3900 +0.06 x

When José's monthly earnings > Maris's monthly earnings

then, 3500 +0.08 x > 3900 +0.06 x

Subtract 3500 from both sides, we get

0.08 x > 400+0.06x

Subtract 0.06x from both sides, we get

0.02x>400

Divide both sides b 0.02

x> 20000

When sales are greater than 2000 then  José's monthly earnings sre more than those of Maris.

2(x - 2) = -4x + 44 what does x equal
Komok [63]
2(x - 2) = -4x + 44

First, expand. / Your problem should look like: 2x - 4 = -4x + 44
Second, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2x = -4x + 44 + 4
Third, simplify -4x + 44 + 4 to get -4x + 48. / Your problem should look like: 2x = -4x + 48
Fourth, add 4x to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2x + 4x = 48
Fifth, add 2x + 4x to get 6x. / Your problem should look like: 6x = 48
Sixth, divide both sides by 6. / Your problem should look like: x =  \frac{48}{6}
Seventh, simplify \frac{48}{6} to 8. / Your problem should look like: x = 8

Answer: x = 8
