Answer:
The answer is: Don's weekly salary is $460 and his sales' commission is 5%
Explanation:
We have to solve the following two equations:
Don's salary week 1 = b + $3,000c =$610
Don's salary week 2 = b + $4,000c =$660
Where:
- b = Don's base weekly salary
- c = sales' commission
Step 1:
b + $4,000c =$660
<u>-(b + $3,000c =$610)</u>
$1,000c = $50
Step 2:
c = $50 / $1,000 = 0.05 = 5%
Step 3:
b + ($3,000 x 5%) = $610
b + $150 = $610
Step 4.
b = $610 -$150 = $460
