5,000 dollars. He must generate about 5,000 dollars per week for the commission to be the better choice. Don't quote me however. But I believe this is the answer.
Cause he gets a base salary of 400.00 plus the 0.08 commision (8%)
He would need at least 5,000 in sales to get 8 percent which would be 400, making his salary
400+400 = 800, better than the other option of 750

400+400 = 800, better than the other option of 750
In order for the option with commission to be the better choice, Shawn has to make sales
Using this solution set
8% of the earnings should be more than $(750-400) = $300
Therefore, we must get the total amount of sales to be made in order to get more than $300 commission. That would be 100%
If 8% = $300
100% =?
(300*100)/8= $3750
Therefore Shawn should make at least $3750 of sales for the commission choice to be a better choice
