Hope that helped :)
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.

The 2nd choice is appropriate.
X equals 6
How? Well first I multiplied 12 x 18 which is 216.
Then I subtracted 468 - 216 that equals 252.
Because I know that 2 x 6 equals a 12.....x had to be a 6.
So I multiplied 42 x 6 and it equaled 252.
So x is 6
