The amount of money that a salesperson makes varies directly as the total amount of sales made. If the salesperson recieves $7,500 for selling a house for $120,000, how much will he or she make if he or she sells a house for $150,000?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "a = kt
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\":
\n" ); document.write( "7500 = k*120000
\n" ); document.write( "k = 0.0625
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Now you know the equation is
\n" ); document.write( "a = (0.0625)t
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "How much will he or she make if he or she sells a house for $150,000?
\n" ); document.write( "a = 0.0625*150000
\n" ); document.write( "a = $9375.00
