I would say the 60 + 20 represents how the shirts cost the same amount. Then I would say the x either represents the cost before tax or how to find the cost of the shirts.
I hope this helps!
Good Luck!

Total Commission = $400
Step-by-step explanation:
Since total is $9000 (in sales) -- commision is 4% on the first $8000 and 8% in the additional part over $8000 (9000-8000=1000). So 8% on $1000.
<u>Total commission</u> = 4% of 8000 + 8% of 1000
= (0.04)(8000) + (0.08)(1000)
= 400
Total Commission is $400
