Question

I need help with this question please parts 1 and 2

Answer 1

Given:

`\begin{gathered} Base\text{ salary}=\text{ \$}600 \\ commission=13\text{ \%}=(13)/(100)=0.13 \end{gathered}`

Part A:

The linear function S(x) is given by;

`S(x)=600+0.13x`

Part B:

S(6000) is when x = 6000, the weekly salary is;

`\begin{gathered} S(x)=600+0.13x \\ S(6000)=600+0.13(6000) \\ S(6000)=600+780 \\ S(6000)=\text{ \$}1380 \end{gathered}`

The interpretation:

The sales person's weekly salary when a sales of $6,000 was made is $1,380
