Answer 1

Answer:

AdCreate billed Anchor Motors $529,412 for the third quarter in 2010

Explanation:

The advertizing company usually takes a 15% commision

Which means from the total amount billed to customer 15% ar commision which means:

money paid to media + 15% comission of the billed amount= total amount billed

450,000 + 0.15X = X

Now, we try to solve for X and get the amount billed to anchor motors.

X = 450,000/.85 = 529.411,76
