20. John Navarro is a salesperson in the appliance department at Morris Appliance, Inc. He is guaranteed a minimum salary of $185 per week, or

5.5 percent of his total sales—whichever is greater. What is his gross pay

for a week in which his total sales were $3,422?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

weekly pay = $185

commission= 5.5% of sales= 0.055

let the sale be x

and his gross pay be represented by y

hence the expression for the total/gross pay is

y=0.055x+185

Step two:

Required is the gross pay y for x=3422

substituting we have

y=0.055*3422+185

y=188.21+185

y=373.21

Hence for a sale of $3,422 made his gross pay is $373.21
