Step-by-step explanation:

We will write a function for this situation

Given

Frederick's Salary = $550

Commission rate = 5% = 0.05

We are given that the commission is 5% of the sales,

Let x be the sales then

$commission = 5\%\ of\ sales\\750 = 0.05 * x\\x = \frac{750}{0.05}\\x = 15000$

His sales are $15000

The total will be his commission and his salary.

Total earning will be: $750+$550 = $1300
