Question

Pls I need help with his math problem

Answer 1

Answer:

  a) P = 0.08s +200

  b) $488

  c) $6250

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Your answer is correct. The commission rate is multiplied by the sales amount, and that product is added to the guaranteed pay to get the paycheck amount:

  P = 0.08s +200

__

b)

Fill in 3600 for s and do the arithmetic.

  P = 0.08×3600 +200 = 288 +200 = 488

The paycheck amount will be $488.

__

c)

Use the equation for part (a) and solve for P = 700.

  700 = 0.08s +200

  500 = 0.08s . . . . . . subtract 200

  500/0.08 = s = 6250 . . . dollars; divide by the coefficient of s to get this

Sales would have to be $6250.
