<PRE><B>Question 764603</B>
A local salesman receives a base salary of $725 monthly. He also receives a commission of 7% on all sales over $1300. How much would he have to sell in a month if he needed to have a monthly income of $2400? 
-----
Salary = 725+0.07(x-1300)
------
2400 = 725 + 0.07x - 91
------
1766 = 0.07x
x = 25,228.57
------
Ceers,
