Let 
x =  base pay per month
y = commission per $1 of sales

Then the monthly pay for selling $100 of merchandise is
P = x + 100y

In one month, Alyssa earned $388 for selling $400 worth of merchandise.
Therefore
x + 400y = 388           (1)

In another month, she earned $520 for selling $1000 worth of merchandise.
Therefore
x + 1000y = 520        (2)

Subtract (1) from (2).
x + 1000y - (x + 400y) = 520 - 388
600y = 132
y = 0.22
From (1), obtain
x = 388 - 400y = 388 - 400*0.22 = 300

When Alyssa sells $3300 worth of merchandise, she earns
300 +0.22*3300 = $1026

Answer: $1026

How do you do that?????
Elden [556K]
This question is easy once you understand. So when adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing with whole numbers you turn it into a fraction. So 12 is going to become 12/1. 8 1/8 is a mixed number so we have to turn it into an incomplete fraction. Here is how you do it. Multiply the denominator by the who number. So 8 x 8 = 64. Then you add your product to the numerator, which will make it 65. Then after this you keep your denominator giving you 65/8. Now we have to find the common denominator by finding the LCM. So the LCM is 8. Next we divide the old denominator by the new denominator. So 1 goes into 8, 8 times. And next 8 x the numerator. so 8 x 12 = 96. We do the same to the other side. Now we have 96/8 - 65/8 = 31/8. Finally we make this a mixed number. So 31 divided by 8. So you should get 3 7/8. 

I hope this helps! :)
