Question

write an equation that can be used to find the total commission, C, Harlan will earn for the cost, s, of the shoes that he sold..​

Answer 1

See below. An example is C = 0.2s.

Explanation:

You can write an expression to represent any situation. Harlan makes a commission which is usually a percentage of the price. For example, if Harlan earns 20% on each purchase then when he sells a $100 he earns $20 of commission. For any price or cost on shoes s, this would be 0.2s. His commission C = 0.2s.
