Jessica has two salary options. She can earn a salary of $500 per week plus 2% of the weekly sales or a salary of $200 per week plus 5% of the weekly sales. Which equation represents the amount, in sales needed, for both salary options to be the same?

200 + 0.02x = 500 + 0.05x

200 + 2x = 500 + 5x

500 + 0.02x = 200 + 0.05x

500 + 2x = 200 + 5x

$500 + 0.02x = $200 + 0.05x  

Step-by-step explanation:

Jessica's first option:  J1 = $500 plus sales commission of 2%:

                                     J1 = $500 + 0.02x, where x:  weekly sales amount

Her second option:  J2 = $200 + 0.05x

Equating these two expressions, we get:

$500 + 0.02x = $200 + 0.05x  

... which is the same as the third answer choice.

step-by-step explanation:

m = 2e

m = 2 so 2 = 2e

1 = e

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
