Assuming that each salesperson earned commission on all items he or she
sold, who earned the most in commission?

Helen

Step-by-step explanation:

Felix 9 x 60 = 540

Helen 12 x 50 = 600  

Reid 10 x 40 = 400

Sidney 6 x 90 = 540

Helen has the highest number

4 + 5 7/9= 9 7/9

step-by-step explanation:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
