QUESTION 5 of 10: To keep your start-up costs low, you decide to hire two salespeople on commission. They have a base salary of $30,000 and receive 6% of all sales in commission. If first year sales are $500,000, what is your total cost for the two salespeople?
a) $80,000
b) $90,000
c) $100,000
d) $110,000
Submit

B. $90000

Explanation:

30000+30000 = 60000

60000 + 30000 (6% commission of 500000) = 90000

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
