Answer:

P(x)=0.025x+100

Step-by-step explanation:

The 0.025 is 2.5% as a decimal. Then, the +100 is for the base pay amount Hailey receives.

Answer:

Hailey's total pay on a day which she sells x dollars worth of computer is P(x) = 100 + \frac{x}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given,</em>

Let x represents the total amount of sales per day

Let bp represents her base pay

bp = $100

Let sc represents her sales commission

sc = 2.5% of total amount of sales

sc = 2.5% of x

Let P(x) represent her total pay on a day she sells x dollars worth of computer

To calculate P(x), we make use of the summation of her base pay by her total sales commission.

This is given as

P(x) = base pay + sales commission

or

P(x) = bp + sc

By Substitution of the right values

P(x) = $100 + 2.5% of $x

P(x) = 100 + \frac{2.5}{100} of $x

P(x) = 100 + \frac{2.5x}{100}

P(x) = 100 + \frac{25x}{1000}

P(x) = 100 + \frac{x}{40}

Hence, Hailey's total pay on a day which she sells x dollars worth of computer is P(x) = 100 + \frac{x}{40}
