Jessica has two salary options. She can earn a salary of $500 per week plus 2% of the weekly sales or a salary of $200 per week plus 5% of the weekly sales. Which equation represents the amount, in sales needed, for both salary options to be the same?

200 + 0.02x = 500 + 0.05x

200 + 2x = 500 + 5x

500 + 0.02x = 200 + 0.05x

500 + 2x = 200 + 5x

Answer:

$500 + 0.02x = $200 + 0.05x  

Step-by-step explanation:

Jessica's first option:  J1 = $500 plus sales commission of 2%:

                                     J1 = $500 + 0.02x, where x:  weekly sales amount

Her second option:  J2 = $200 + 0.05x

Equating these two expressions, we get:

$500 + 0.02x = $200 + 0.05x  

... which is the same as the third answer choice.
