PLEASE HELP | Maria earns $8 per hour and gets a commmission of 5% on the sale price of each item she sells. She wants to work only 15 hours each week, and earn at least $200 each week. Choose the inequality to find the dollar value of the sales maria must make to reach her goal. Then solve

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]1600\leq s[/tex]

[tex]200\leq 0.05s+120[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the base amount Maria makes each week:

[tex]8*15=120[/tex]

Convert percent to decimal:

[tex]5*0.01=0.05[/tex]

Create the inequality equations:

[tex]200\leq 0.05s+120[/tex]

Where s is the amount she makes in sales.

Solve algebraically:

[tex]200\leq 0.05s+120\\200-120\leq 0.05s+120-120\\80/0.05\leq 0.05s/0.05\\1600\leq s[/tex]
