<PRE><B>Question 1112916</B>
For a summer sales job, you are choosing between two pay arrangements: a weekly salary of $200 plus 5% commission on sales, or a straight 9% commission. For how many dollars of sales will the earnings be the same regardless of the pay arrangement? 
Equation::
200 + 0.05s = 0.09s
------
0.04s = 200
----
s = 20000/4
Sales = $5000
