Let the commission sales = X
Salary Plan 1
salary per week = $400
commission sales = 2%
[tex]\text{Commision sales = 2\%}\times X=\text{ \$0.02X}[/tex]Salary Plan 2
salary per week = $300
commission sales = 18%
[tex]\text{ Commission sales = 18\%}\times X=\text{ \$0.18X}[/tex]Becky's salary for both plans (inclusive of commission sales) would be:
Plan 1:
[tex]\text{ \$400+0.02X}[/tex]Plan 2:
[tex]\text{ \$300+0.18X}[/tex]In order to find how much Becky needs to make in sales for salary to be the same from both plans would be:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ \$400+0.02X= \$300+0.18X} \\ \text{collect like terms} \\ 0.18X-0.02X=400-300 \\ 0.16X=100 \\ X=\frac{100}{0.16}=625 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the commission sales should be $625
