Given:

a.) Franco ears weekly salary of $350 plus 3% commission on the sale of cars.

b.) One week he sold $95,400 in sales.

To be able to determine his total paycheck for the week, we will be using the following formula:


\text{ Total Paycheck = Weekly salary + Commision}

Where,

The weekly salary = $350

Commision = 3% of sales

Sales for the week = $95,400

We get,


\text{ Total Paycheck = Weekly salary + Commision}
\text{ = \$350 + (}(3)/(100))(\text{\$95,400) = \$350 + (}0.03)(\text{\$95,400)}
\text{ = \$350 + }2,862
\text{ Total Paycheck = \$3,212}

Therefore, Franco's total paycheck for the week is $3,212. The answer is letter D.
