Answer 3

OK, you can just make up any number for her base salary you want. So I'm going to say her base salary is $30,000.

You can set her commission for selling each copy of the software at any number you want. So I'm going to say she makes $1.50 for every copy of software she sells.

I'm going use the variable p for pay and n for the number copies sold. My sales to total pay equation will look like this:

30,000 + 1.50n = p

If she sells 1,000 copies of the software, her total pay is:

30,000 + 1.50

Answer 4

30,000+1.50(1000)= p

30,000 +1,500 = 31,500

Her total pay is $31,500
