An insurance agent earns a base salary of $32,000, and a commission of 3% of his sales. He also receives an additional fee of $16.00 for each home policy he sells. The agent has sold a total of $89,000 and 8 home policies this month. Find the commission and fees he has earned.

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116

50-60=10
