N; n+1; n+2 - 3 consecutive numbers
n(n + 1) = (n + 2)² - 19 |use a(b + c) = ab + ac and (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
n² + n = n² + 4n + 4 - 19 |subtract n² from both sides
n = 4n - 15 |subtract 4n from both sides
-3n = -15 |divide both sides by (-3)
n = 5
n + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
n + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7
Answer: 5; 6; 7.

The waitress earns $425 weekly.
Work:
Use proportions.
x 4
------- = ------
4,200 100
4,200 x 4 = 16800
100 multiply x = 100x
16800 divided by 100 = 168
Commission = $168
Base salary = $257
$168 + $257 = $425
