to ensure that the dollar value of the commission is always larger as the
order value increases.  Can anyone help me with this?

Try rate = (35x + 500) / (9x) for x between15 and 50. Here x is in
thousands and rate is in %. This will give you commission rates
decreasing from 15% to 5% while the total commissions increase
linearly between $750 and $2500.
