Jose and Maris work for different car dealerships. Jose earns a monthly salary of $3,500 plus a 6% commission on his sales, x. Maris earns a

monthly salary of $4,000 plus a 4% commission on her sales, x. For what value of sales, x, will Jose's earnings be greater than Maris' earnings?

Choose the inequality that could be used to solve this problem.

3,500 + 0.06x > 4,000 + 0.04x

3,500 + 0.6x > 4,000 + 0.4x

3,500 + 6x > 4,000 + 4x

3,500 + 0.06x < 4,000 + 0.04x

    (A) 3,500 + 0.06x > 4,000 + 0.04x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Jose's Earnings

    Monthly Salary = $3,500

    6% commission on his sales, x = 0.06x

    Total = 3500+0.06x

    Maris' Earnings

    Monthly Salary = $4,000

    4% commission on her sales, x = 0.04x

    Total = 4000+0.04x

    If Jose's earnings be greater than Maris' earnings, then:

    3500+0.06x > 4000+0.04x
