Suppose the salesperson's total salary for the month was $4,800, what was his total sales for the month?

find S(25000) and interpret what it means in context of the problem.

Respuesta :


[tex]80000 \times 5\% = 4000[/tex]

[tex]4000 + 2000 = 6000[/tex]
His salary for that month is $6000.


[tex]4800 - 2000 = 2800[/tex]
[tex]x \times 5\% = 2800 \\ x = 2800 \times \frac{100}{5} \\ x = 56000[/tex]
His total sales for that month is 56,000 worth of merchandise.
