10.5% of her total sales in dollars, x, which can be represented by
g(x) = 225 + 0.105x. Lincoln is paid $361 per week plus 9.5% of his total sales in
dollars, x, which can be represented by f (al 361 + 0.0952. Determine the value
of x, in dollars, that will make their weekly pay the same.

Answer 1

$ 13600

Explanation:

just make it g(x) = f(x)

225 + 0.105x = 361 + 0,095x

361 - 225 = 0.105x - 0.095x

136 = 0.01x

x = 136 / 0.01 = 13600

so that the weekly pay the same for both of them the value of x is $ 13 600
