Parker and Makayla work at a furniture store. Parker is paid $230 per week plus 1.5% of his total sales in dollars, x x, which can be represented by g (x) = 230 + 0.015 x g (x) = 230+0.015x. Makayla is paid $196 per week plus 2% of her total sales in dollars, x x, which can be represented by f (x) = 196 + 0.02 x f (x) = 196+0.02x.

Step-by-step explanation:

230 + 0.015x = 196 + 0.02x

230 - 196 = 0.02x - 0.015x

34 = 0.005x

34 / 0.005 = x

6800 = x <===
