Answer:

Jack has to sell the old computers worth $8000

Explanation:

Jack is paid for selling used computers = $15 per hour plus 5% commission

Let the revenue generated from selling the computers by him = $x

He will be paid for 40 hours = $(40×15) = $600

Commission earned by selling x computers = $0.05x

Total amount earned by him in 40 hours week = 600 + 0.05x

If this amount is $1000,

$1000 = $(600 + 0.05x)

0.05x = 1000 - 600

0.05x = 400

x =
(400)/(0.05)

x = $8000

Therefore, Jack has to sell the old computers worth $8000.
