If the sales person wants to make at least 500 dollars they will have to make 12.5 sales that week
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the equation 500=24x+ 200 because they want to make $500 and they get 24 dollars per sale plus the $200 automatically each week. So just solve the equation and you should get 12.5.
500=24x+200
-200 -200
300=24x
/24 /24

X=12.5
