Hey there! I'm happy to help!
This symbol is an <u>absolute value</u> symbol. It means that we are looking for that number's distance from 0. There is no such thing as a negative distance; the distances are all positive, so both ∣9∣ and ∣-9∣ have a value of 9.
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D

Answer:
<em>The salesperson's commission for this month is $3,803</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
Let's call x to the sales volume, not including commission.
The salesperson is paid an 8.25% commission on sales, thus the total invoice is x + 8.25%x = x + 0.0825x = 1.0825x
We are given this total invoice, thus:
1.0825x = $49,900
Dividing by 1.0825:
x = $46,097
The salesperson's commission is
0.0825*$46,097=$3,803
The salesperson's commission for this month is $3,803
