Question

A salesperson is paid a flat rate plus a fixed percentage of her sales. Last month, she sold $16,000 worth of goods and was paid $1,600. Two months ago, she had $12,000 in sales and was paid $1,400. This month she sold $11,000 worth of goods. How much will she be paid?

Answer 1

f + 16000p = 1600
f + 12000p = 1400
