Jesus sells boy-scout cookies. He gets paid 15% of his first $120 of sales and 19% of any sales more than $120. Last month he sold $385 worth of cookies. How much will his gross paycheck be? How much did he earn at the 15% rate? What were his cookie sales ABOVE $120 (that will get the higher commission rate) How much did he earn at the 19% rate? How much was his gross paycheck?

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
