Company a has a sales position with a yearly salary of $42,000. company b has a similar sales position with a slary of $39,000 plus 1% conmission on yearly sales. for what amount of yearly sales is the salary at company a greater than the salary and conmission at company b?

Company A has a sales position with a yearly salary of $42,000. Company B has a similar sales position with a slary of $39,000 plus 1% conmission on yearly sales.

Let x be the amount of yearly sales

Company A has a sales position with a yearly salary of $42,000.

yearly salary = 42,000

Company B has a similar sales position with a salary of $39,000 plus 1% commission on yearly sales.

1% is 0.01

yearly salary = 39,000+ 0.01x

yearly sales is the salary at company A greater than the salary and conmission at company B

A > B

42000 > 39000+ 0.01x

We solve the inequality

39000+ 0.01x < 42000

Subtract 39000 on both sides

0.01x < 3000

divide by 0.01

x> 300,000

For yearly sales > $300,000, the salary at company A greater than the salary and commission at company B

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
