His hourly rate is $13.75.
Let x be the hourly rate. Since he works 20 hours that week, the hourly wages are given by 20x. We add to that his commission, which is 16% of the $1500 in sales, or 0.16(1500). This totals to 515:
20x + 0.16(1500) = 515
20x + 240 = 515
Subtract 240 from both sides:
20x + 240 - 240 = 515 - 240
20x = 275
Divide both sides by 20:
20x/20 = 275/20
x = 13.75.

Answer:
x= 3/2 or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, you can take out the parenthesis because 8x is subtracting 2x-3.
8x-2x-3=12
6x-3=12
+3 +3
6x= 15
6x/6= 15/6
x= 3/2 or 1.5
Hope this helps!
