Answer 2

Answer: Our required equation will be
`s=2000+0.2d`

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Base salary of Karen = $2000

Rate of commission on all of her sales = 20%

We need to write a equation:

Let the total salary of her be 's'

Let the number of dollars of merchandise sold be 'd'

According to question, it becomes

`s=2000+(20)/(100)* d\\\\s=2000+0.2d`

Hence, our required equation will be
`s=2000+0.2d`
