Find
the gross pay of Mr. Anderson in a week.

He earns 200 dollars a week + 15% commission on over 1000 dollars sales.

In a week he earned 2500 dollars.

=> Pls, take note, that he can only get a 15% commission for over 1000
dollars sales he get.

=> 2 500 dollars – 1 000 dollars

=> 1 500 dollars, now in 1500 dollars get the 15% commission

=> 1 500 x .15

=> 225 + 200 (his original earnings)

=> 425 dollars.
