Step-by-step explanation:
On a frigid, foggy Christmas Eve in London, a shrewd, mean-spirited cheapskate named Ebenezer Scrooge works meticulously in his counting-house. Outside the office creaks a little sign reading "Scrooge and Marley"--Jacob Marley, Scrooge's business partner, has died seven years previous. Inside the office, Scrooge watches over his clerk, a poor diminutive man named Bob Cratchit. The smoldering ashes in the fireplace provide little heat even for Bob's tiny room. Despite the harsh weather Scrooge refuses to pay for another lump of coal to warm the office.

By using a change of units, we can see that the rate in dollars per liter is:
R = $0.0027 per liter.
<h3>
How to convert the rate?</h3>
Here we have a rate in dollars per cubic foot, and we want to rewrite this in dollars per liter. So we just need to apply a change of units.
The original rate is in dollars per square foot, and it is given by:
R = $1.30 for 16.7ft^3
We know that the relation between cubic feet and liters is:
1ft^3 = 28.32 L
Then, if we apply a change of units, we can rewrite the volume as:
16.7ft^3 = 16.7*(28.32) L = 472.9 L
Then the rate is $1.30 per 472.9 L, taking the quotient we get:
R = ($1.30/472.9 L) = $0.0027 per liter.

First we must construct an equation to model the problem. (In this case we will use an inequality instead) This is what I came up with:
450.20+0.15s>=600.10
This equation shows how if her base earnings ($450.20) are added to 15% of her sales, represented by s, then the total will be greater than or equal to $600.10
Next, we simply solve for s. (steps shown below)
1) 450.20+0.15s>=600.10 (simply restating the inequality)
2) 0.15s>=149.90 (here I isolated the variable)
3)0.15s/0.15>=149.90/0.15 (Finally I solve for s by dividing both sides by 0.15, this will isolate s on the left and leave the answer on the right)
4) s>=999.33... (here I found the total sales the salesperson would need to reach his/her goal of earning a minimum of $600.10; the 3's after the decimal are repeating so in the next step I will round up to the nearest hundredth (b/c this is what money is rounded to and if I round down he/she would make less than her goal. This means i must round up.))
5) s>=999.34 (simple rounding; once again I rounded up b/c rounding down would slightly bring the total earnings to less than the goal)
<u>Therefore, the salesperson would need his/her sales to be $999.34 in order for his/her total earnings for the week to be at least $600.10</u> (greater than or equal to $600.10)
<u>Hope this helped!</u>
The answer to this is,1/4.
