Employees at Counting Sheep Mattress Company earn 40% commissions on each mattress they sell. Jason sold a mattress for $1,149. How much commission did Jason earn?

Jason earned $459.6 from that sale.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how much Jason made we need to calculate how much 40% of 1,149 is. We can use a rule of three for that in such a way that 1,149 relates to 100% such as 'x' relates to 40%. So we have:

1149 -> 100%

x -> 40%

100*x = 1149*40

100*x = 45960

x = 45960/100 = $459.6

Jason earned $459.6 from that sale.

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
