Question

Liz earns a salary of $2,100 per month, plus a commission of 3% of her sales. She wants to earn at least $2,900 this month. Enter an inequality to find amounts of sales that will meet her goal. Identify what your variable represents. Enter the commission rate as a decimal

Answer 1

Answer:

x≥26667

Step-by-step explanation:

let x= her sales

so the money she gets from her sales is .03x

if we wants at least 2900 we can write

2100+.03x≥2900

Solve for x

.03x≥800

x≥26666.6667

round up (because you can make a fraction of a sale) to get

x≥26667
