To find the total sales, we need to solve the equation for x.
0.28x + 38,000 = 45,000.
Subtracting 38,000 from both sides of the equation, we get:
0.28x = 7,000.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.28, we get:
x = 25,000.
Therefore, Adam made $25,000 total in sales.
Adam calculates his annual salary (base pay and commission), y, using the model y=0.28x+38,000
If Adam made $45,000 total annual salary, how much was his total sales?
