Steve: Base Salary = $350, Commission = $35/car
----------------------------------------------------
Tom's earning in one week
----------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of cars he sold in a week
Tom's earning = 200 + 50x
----------------------------------------------------
Ans: 200 + 50x
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
Steve's earning in one week
----------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of cars he sold in a week
Steve's earning = 350 + 35x
----------------------------------------------------
Ans: 350 + 35x
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
If both earn the same amount, find x
----------------------------------------------------
200 + 50x = 350 + 35x
50x - 35x = 350 - 200
15x = 150
x = 10
