Answer:

x = 10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

commision earned = $4500. - $4200

commision = 300

therefore:

commision = 3% of the amount of the sales

300 = 3% of x( the price isn't known)

300 = 3/100 * x

300 = 3x /100

multiplying both sides by 100

300 x 100 = 3x/100 x 100

30000 = 3x

Divide through by 3

x = 10,000.

the amount of the sales = 10,000

______________

To check

commision = 3% of 10,000

commision = 300

A 6-pack of fruit juice costs $2.76. At that same rate, how much would a 15-pack cost
Scorpion4ik [409]
A 15 - pack would cost $6.90.

Explanation:
We know that a 6-pack of fruit juice would cost 2.76, so to find the cost of 1 -pack, you divide 2.76 by 6. That gives us $0.46 for 1 -pack. To find the cost of a 15-pack, you would multiply $0.46 by 15, which gives us $6.90. Therefore, a 15- pack would cost $6.90
