Answer:

Commission rate is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Joey's weekly salary is $325

Plus a commission on his total sales.

Let commission is x% on his total sales.

So, we can set up equation for the given information as

325+x%(2950)= 915

Solve this equation for x%.

Subtract both sides 325

x%(2950) =590

Divide both sides by 2950

x%=0.2

We know x% means it is [tex]\frac{x}{100}[/tex]

So, [tex]\frac{x}{100} =0.2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 100

x=20%.

So, commission rate is 20%
