A salesperson's weekly paycheck is 50% more than a second salesperson's paycheck. The two paychecks total $1625. Find the amount of each paycheck. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)

The amount of each person's pay check =

a = First person's pay check = $1083.33

b = Second person's pay check = $541.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first sales person's pay check = a

The second sales person's pay check = b

A salesperson's weekly paycheck is

50% more than a second salesperson's paycheck.

Hence,

First pay check (a) = a

Second paycheck (b) = 0.5 of a

= 0.5a

The two paychecks total $1625.

a + b = $1625

a + 0.5a = 1625

1.5a = 1625

a = 1625/1.5

a =$ 1083.3333333

a is approximately = $1083.33

Since

0.5a = b

0.5 × 1083.3333333 = b

$541.66666667 = b

b = approximately = $541.67

Therefore, the amount of each person's pay check approximately to the nearest cent =

a = First person's pay check = $1083.33

b = Second person's pay check = $541.67
