Answer:

Sales= $750

Step-by-step explanation:

let sale be x

and his salary be y

y=300+0.4x----------1 the old equation

y=450+0.2x----------2 the new equation

for his salary to be the same

equation 1 and 2 must be equal hence

300+0.4x=450+0.2x

solving for x we have

300-450+0.4x-0.2x=0

-150+0.2x=0

0.2x=150

x=150/0.2

x=$750
