Tamara earns her living as a salary plus commission employee. her annual salary is $48,000, and she earns 4% commission on all sales she makes. if tamara wants to make a total of $6,000 this month, how much in sales does she need to have?

$5,000 in sales

Step-by-step explanation:

dividing the annual salary by 12 to find how much she makes in a month:

48,000/12 = $4,000

If she wants to make $6,000 this month, she needs

6,000 - 4,000 = $2,000 in comissions

$2,000 is the 4% of how much she made in sales.

denoting the total of sales by x:

4%x = 2,000

---> 0.04x = 2,000

this makes x = 2,000/0.04

--> x = $50,000

So to get a moth salary of $6,000 she needs to have $5,000 in sales

hj=3x+20

ji=15x-64

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
