Help pls Cameron works in a department store selling clothing He makes a guaranteed salary of 200 per week but is paid a commision on top of his base salary equ class=

Respuesta :

His weekly earning is an illustration of linear equation

  • When he sells $1400, his total earning is: $270
  • When he sells $x, his total earning is: 200 + 0.05x

The parameter is represented as:

[tex]Base\ Salary = \$200[/tex]

His earnings from a sales of $1400 is calculated as:

[tex]Earnings =5\% \times \$1400[/tex]

[tex]Earnings = \$70[/tex]

So, his total earning is;

[tex]Total =Base\ Salary + Earnings[/tex]

[tex]Total =\$200 + \$70[/tex]

[tex]Total =\$270[/tex]

When he sells $x, his total earning is:

[tex]Total = Base\ Salary + 5\% \times x[/tex]

Substitute 200 for Base Salary

[tex]Total = 200 + 5\% \times x[/tex]

Express 5% as decimal

[tex]Total = 200 + 0.05 \times x[/tex]

[tex]Total = 200 + 0.05x[/tex]
