A SALES PERSON AT APPLE EARNS $300 PER WEEK PLUS COMMISSION EQUAL TO 5%OF HER SALES . this WEEK HER GOAL IS TH EARN AT $550. Write and solve an inequality to find the amount of sales she must have to reach her goal

Respuesta :

Let us say that:

S = total sales

 

Therefore the inequality equation in this case is:

300 + 0.05 S ≥ 550

Solving:

S ≥ 5,000

 

Therefore she must have a sales of at least $5,000 to have an earning of at least $550.
