Solución:
Sea x el número de horas necesarias para trabajar.
La tasa de ventas es de $100 por 1,5 horas y la comisión es igual al 10% de las ventas totales. Por lo tanto, la comisión total por x número de horas es igual al 10% de la tasa de ventas multiplicada por x, o \frac{\$100}{1.5h}\cdot10%\cdot x que, simplificado, es igual a \frac{20}{3}x
El salario mensual objetivo es igual al salario base más la comisión mensual total, que es igual a 600+\frac{20}{3}x=2000 Resolver x, \frac{20}{3 }x=1400 x=1400\times\frac{3}{20} x=210h
Por lo tanto, el vendedor necesita trabajar un promedio de 210 horas cada mes para que los ingresos sean de $2000.
Respuesta: 210 horas
