Alice gets a job selling boots, and is given the option of wages plus commission, or commission only. In the first option, she would earn $33 in wages for each day of work, plus $2.50 for every pair of boots sold. Under the commission only option, she would earn no wages, and $3.25 for every pair of boots sold. How many pairs of boots would Alice have to sell in one day to make the two options equal?

44 pairs of boots

Step-by-step explanation:

As per two options given to Alice,

1). Wages of $33 for each day work + commission of $2.5 for every pair sold.

 If Alice sells x pairs of boots in a day, then total amount earned by Alice,

 = (33 + 2.5x)

2). Commission of $3.25 for every boot sold.

  If Alice sold x pairs of boots, total earnings of the day = 3.25x

If earning of Alice is equal in both the plans,

(33 + 2.5x) = 3.25x

3.25x - 2.5x = 33

0.75x = 33

x = 44

Therefore, for the sales of 44 pairs of the boots Alice will earn equal by both the plans.
