Alex earns a weekly base salary of $650 as a car salesman. He also earns a 9% commission on his monthly sales after the first $10,000. What was his total salary this month if he sold 7 cars whose average price was $4,500 each?​

Respuesta :

Answer: His Total salary this month = $2585

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex sold 7 cars/month, average price of each car = $4500

total car sales = $4500 x 7 = $31500 for the month

He earns a 9% commission on his monthly sales after the first $10,000.

So he earns 9% commission on $31500 - $10,000 = $21500

9% of  $21500 = $1935

His base salary is $650.

His Total salary this month = base salary + 9% commission = $650 + $1935 = $2585
