Mr. Randall, a salesperson, earns a weekly salary of $300 plus a commission of 7% of his weekly sales of merchandise. Last week, Mr. Randall earned $426. This can be represented by the equation below, where s represents his total sales, in dollars, for the week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that weekly salary is $300

and a commission of 7% of the weekly sales

let the sales be s

7% of s = 0.07s

hence weekly commission = 0.07s

let the total earning be y

the linear model for Mr. Randall earnings is

y=300+0.07s

step two:

For the situation whereby he earned $426

the model is given as

426=300+0.07s

let us solve for s, the sales made

426-300=0.07s

126=0.07s

divide both sides by 0.07

s=126/0.07

s=1800

Hence he made sales of $1800 for that week

£56

step-by-step explanation:

u divide 24 by 3 and u get 8 so if u do 8 time 7 or 8+8+8+8+8+8+8 u get 56 and 56 divided by 7 is 8.
