The total amount that Luis earned from last week's sales is equal to the sum of the base pay and the commission. This is expressed in the equation,

T = B + C

where T is total pay, B is the base pay, and C is the commission. Commission is known to be 14% of A which is the amount sold.

T = B + 0.14A

Substituting the known values,

T = ($150) + 0.14($6050)

Simplifying,

T = $995

The answer to this item is $995.
