Answer:

$T = 25000 + 0.05x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Salary = 25000$

$Commission = 5\%$

Required

Write an equation when sales = x

The equation can be written as:

$Total (T) = Salary + Commission * Sales$

This gives

$T = 25000 + 5\% * x$

Convert percentage to decimal

$T = 25000 + 0.05 * x$

$T = 25000 + 0.05x$
