You are a salesperson for worldwide widgets ecah week you earn $200 plus two ninths of your sales what dollor amount of sales do u need this week to earn $500

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is

$200 + 2/9 x = 500

X is the amount of sales in dollars you need to make tp earn $500 this week

then you need to isolate x

1) get rid of 200 subtracting 200 in both sides of the equation

200-200 + 2/9 x = 500 - 200

2/9 x = 300

2) get rid of 2/9 multiplying by the reciprocal of 2/9 that is 9/2 both sides

2/9. 9/2 x = 300. 9/2

x = 1,350

The answer is: The amount of sales that you need to do this week to earn $500 is $1,350

1800

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Salary = s = 500

Basic Pay = BP = 200

Sales = x

Formula

Salary = Basic Pay + (2/9) x

Solution

S = BP + (2/9) x

500 = 200 + 2/9 x Subtract 200

500 - 200 = 2/9 x

300 = 2/9 x Multiply both sides by 9/2

300 (9/2) = 9/2 * 2/9 x Change 9/2 to 4.5

400*4.5 = x

x = 1800

The Person sold 1800 dollars worth of widgets
