I'll make it up to you

A. Define the variables and write an equation to represent the relationship between the price of a home and the commission received.

Commission are a form of variable-pay remuneration for services rendered or products sold.

Equation would be like this (with s for sale of a house and c for commission),

5% of s = C

B. How much commission will the realtor earn for selling a $150,000 home?

Use equation.

5% of 150,000 = C

5% of 150,000 = $7,500

C. If the realtor earned an $8750 commission, what was the price of the home? $175,000

I forgot how to explain it to you but this is the answer.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Let "C"be the commission and P the price of the home.

We can represent the commission of the realtor with the following equation as :

[tex]C=0.05*P[/tex] - And that's our answer!

Here's an example to make you understand a little bit more :

If the realtor sold a home valued at $350,000, the commission would have :

[tex]C = 0.05*$350,000 = $17,500[/tex]

Part B) Let's use a equation :

[tex]5[/tex]% [tex]of~150,000 = C[/tex]

[tex]5[/tex]% [tex][tex]of~150,000 = 7,500[/tex]

Part C) The price of the home was : $175,000
