Leslye is a salesperson at a home improvement center. she is paid a monthly commission that is 7.5% of her first $1,000 in sales and 12% of the balance of her sales. today she earned $517. what was the total value of merchandise sold?

She sold for $4683.33

Step-by-step explanation:

For a sales of $1000 she is paid 7.5% which is equivalent to $75.

Since she earned $517 , her total sales was more than $1000.

Let she had a sales of $(1000+x).

Then her commission would be $75 + 12% of $x .

But her total commission was $517.

Then commission from sales after she sold for $1000 = $(517 - 75)

                                         = $442

This is also equal to 12% of x.

x = $3683.33

Hence she sold for $4683.33

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this gracious day. in order to compare the ratios easily, it is best that we simplify the question first. so, the cougars would have 6 wins for 5 losses, bobcats make 2 wins for 1 loss. bulldogs and tigers have a ratio where you can't simplify it. so, the team with the lowest rate would be the bobcats.

i hope that this ! : d
