Question 936152: A salesman earns Php 2500 a week plus 6% commission on weekly sales exceeding Php 75000. If his salary plus commission during one week amounted to Php 5500 how much was his sale? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = 0.06(x - 75000) + 2500
5500 = 0.06(x - 75000) + 2500
5500 = 0.06x - 75000*0.06 + 2500
0.06x = 5500 + 75000*0.06 - 2500
x = (5500 + 75000*0.06 - 2500)/0.06
x = 125000
