Answer:

j(s) = 0.05s -500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base\ Salary = 2000

Commission = 5\% on Sales over 50000

Required

Determine the function j(s) for sales over 50000

Represent the total sales in a month with s.

Sales over 50000 in that month will be: s - 50000

So, the function j(s) is:

j(s) = Base Amount + Commission * Sales over 50000

j(s) = 2000 + 5\% * (s - 50000)

Convert % to decimal

j(s) = 2000 + 0.05 * (s - 50000)

Open bracket

j(s) = 2000 + 0.05 * s - 0.05 * 50000

j(s) = 2000 + 0.05s - 2500

Collect Like Terms

j(s) = 0.05s - 2500 + 2000

j(s) = 0.05s -500
