A car salesman's total earnings,e, is a base salary plus a commission. The salesman has a base salary of $40,000 and receives a commission of $200 for every car, c, he sells. Which equation represents the total earnings for the salesman
A) e=40,000-200 x C
B) e=40,000 x c+200
C) e=40,000+200 x c
D) e=40,000 -c ÷2,001

Respuesta :

The equation that best represents the total earnings for the salesman is letter c which is e=40,000+200 x c
It is because in order to get the total earnings, you have to add the base salary to the commission that the salesman receives. Whereas, the $40,000 is added to the commission where the $200 is multiplied to c (every car the salesman sells).

Answer: C)  [tex] e=40000+200\times c[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A car salesman's total earnings 'e' is a base salary plus a commission.

The salesman has a base salary = $40,000

Commission on every car  he sells= $200

Let 'c' be the number of cars, then the total amount he earn as commission  is given by expression :-

[tex]200\times c[/tex]

Now, Total cost earnings = Base salary + Total Commission

[tex]\Rightarrow e=40000+200\times c[/tex]

Hence, the equation represents the total earnings for the salesman will be :-

[tex] e=40000+200\times c[/tex]
