math help please..u will get point!!!!?

commission >= 1500 - 1250

commission >= 250

since commission = .05 x sales

.05 x sales >= 250

sales >= 250 / .05

sales >= 5000

Jordan's commission $1500-$1250 =$ 250

sales=

S x 5%=$250

S x 5/100= $250

s x 5 =25000

s=25000/5

s= $5000

The general equation is:

salary + (sales * commission) = money earned

So, plug in what you know and solve for what you need:

1250 + (s * .05) = 1500

.05s = 250

s = 250/.05 = 5000

So, Jordan needs to sell $5000 worth of merchandise to earn $1500 a month.

let s = the amount of Jordan's sales

$1250 + 0.05(s) = $1500

subtracting $1250 from both sides,

0.05(s) = $250

dividing both sides by 0.05

s = $5000

Jordan must sell $5000 worth of whatever it is he sells to make $1500 this month.

he will need to earn $1500-$1250= $250 in commision

commision = .05 * s

250 = .05 * s

s = 250/.05

s= $5000

therefore he would have to sell at least $5000 to earn 1500 in a month

s=(1500-1250)/%5=250/0.05=5000

$1500 = salary + commission

so commission = $250

therefore if

5% - $250

100% - $X

5x = 25000

x= $5000

earnings are 1200 plus 5% of sales

1500 = 1200 + 0.05s

300 = 0.05s

300/0.05 = s

60,000 = s
