Set 8: Linear Inequalities (Advanced)

Choice A is correct. Choice A is the correct answer. Set up the income inequality. 1. Income Equation: Base + Commission = $2000+ 0.10 s$ 2. Target: At least $5000$$\rightarrow \geq 5000 3. Inequality: $2000+ 0.10 s \geq 5000$ 4. Subtract 2000: $0.10s \geq 3000$ 5. Divide by 0.10: $s \geq 30,000$ Strategic Tip: Dividing by 0.10 is the same as multiplying by 10. Choice B is incorrect because it likely divides by 1 instead of 0.10. Choice C is incorrect because it adds 2000 to 5000 instead of subtracting. Choice D is incorrect because it ignores the base salary.
