Answer:
The agency charges for its services for you is $1375 .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
An employment agency charges fees of 30 percent for its services based on the new employee's first year of salaried income.
This agency has found you a job paying a $55,000 salary in the first year.
If the agency splits the fee, charging 27.5 percent to the employer and 2.5 percent to the employee.
2.5 % is written in the decimal form.
[tex]= \frac{2.5}{100}[/tex]
= 0.025
Thus
The agency charges = 0.025 × 55000
= $1375
Therefore the agency charges for its services for you is $1375 .
