Given :

Nate Belloir earns a weekly commission of 2. 5% on sales of $50,000 or less and 3. 0% on sales in excess of $50,000. One week Nate's commission was $2,135.

Let x be the total sales.

2135 = 2.5 % * 50000 + 3 % (x - 50000 )

= 2.5 * 50000 / 100 + 3/100 ( x - 50000 )

1235 = 2.5 * 500 + 0.03x - 0.03 * 50000

1235  = 1250 + 0.03x - 1500

0.03x = 1235 - 1250 + 1500

0.03x = -15 + 1500

0.03x = 1485

multiply by 100 on both sides

0.03x * 100 = 1485 * 100

3x = 148500

x = $49500
