Question

Yvonne is a salesperson who earns a fixed amount of $1,850 per month. She also earns a commission of 4% on the amount of goods that she sells. If she wants to earn more than $2,300 in one month, how many dollars (x) in goods must she sell?

Answer 1

x> 11,250

yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Answer 2

Answer: $11,250

1850 + (4/100)x = 1850 + 0.04x.

1850 + 0.04x > 2300

0.04x > 2300 - 1850

0.04x > 450

x > 450 / 0.04

x > $11,250
