Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. Budget Cars

says they will pay him $500 per week plus a 7.5% commission on the sale price of each car.

Jim can sell one car every week. What price would the car have to sell for in order for these

two job opportunities to pay Jim the same amount?

PLEASE HELP FAST !!!

The car has to sell for $20000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price that the car would have to sell for in order for these two job opportunities to pay Jim the same amount.

Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be

10/100 × x = 0.1x

Budget Cars says they will pay him $500 per week plus a 7.5% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be

500 + 0.075x

For boths pays to be the same, it means that

0.1x = 500 + 0.075x

0.1x - 0.075x = 500

0.025x = 500

x = 500/0.025

x = 20000
