Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The basic salary is


\text{ \$}400

The commission given is


\begin{gathered} commision=6\%ofsales \\ where, \\ sales=s \end{gathered}

The commission therefore will be represented below as


\begin{gathered} commission=(6)/(100)s \\ commision=0.06s \end{gathered}

Using the formula below, we will have the expression be


\begin{gathered} totalpay=basicsalary+commision \\ totalpay=400+0.06s \end{gathered}

Hence,

The expression will be


t=0.06s+400
