$50,000
b.
$70,000
c.
$90,000
d.
$120,000

if Bobs want to make $6000 commission he needs to make $120,000 sales.

*choices d

Step-by-step explanation:

in $3000, the 5% of Bobs commission is $150

*solution

5% is equivalent to 0.05 in decimal

3000 × 0.05 = 150

so just divide the 5% to $6000 to get the sales

*solution

$6000 ÷ 0.05 = $120,000

The answer is 70,000 sales.

Bob gets paid an annual salary of $30,000, which means that monthly he gets:

$30,000 : 12 months = $2,500 per month

x - number of sales

Bob earns 5% commission on all sales he makes: x * 5% = x * 0.05 = 0.05x

The function is:

f(x) = 2,500 + 0.05x

Bob wants to make $6,000 this month: f(x) = 6,000

2500 + 0.05x = 6000

0.05x = 6000 - 2500

0.05x = 3500

x = 3500 : 0.05

x = 70000 sales
