A. $1589.01
I solved this by a simple trial and error by inputing each answer into the equation.
Answer:
$877.50
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply the value by the percentage.
19,500 x 4.5% = $877.50
This is the amount of the commission.
For better representation, I think the function is written as:
B(x) = 40.00 - 0.08x
This is much more comprehensive. The variable x represents the number of prints. So, if x=40 prints, we replace this to the x in the equation to find the balance B.
B = 40 - 0.08(40)
<em>B = $36.8</em>
