Answer 1

Answer:

$760

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

weekly = $325

commission= 7.5%

if she sold $5,800 worth of merchandise

Her earnings will be

Week earning= base salary+ 7.5% of sales

Week earning= 325+ 7.5/100*5800

Week earning= 325+ 0.075*5800

Week earning= 325+ 435

Week earning= $760
