Answer:

In a week with sales of $1475, she will made $645, and in a week with x dollars in sales $350 + 0.2*x

Step-by-step explanation:

basic salary = 350/ week

sales in one week = 1475

commission 20% of the sales

commission: 20*sales in one week/100 = 20 *1475/100=295

total in a week = basic salary + commission = 350+295=645

total in a week with x dollars in sales = basic salary + commission= 350 + 20/100* x dollars in sale

total= 350 + 2/10*x= 350 + 0.2*x
