Question 942683: If a person gets paid a $30,000 salary plus a 4% on every sale, and they want their total pay to be paid $80,000, what would the value of the sale have to be? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = dollar amount of sale
y = salary
---
y = 0.04x + 30000
---
80000 = 0.04x + 30000
0.04x = 80000 - 30000
x = (80000 - 30000)/0.04
x = 1,250,000
