Answer 1

c. (280+ 0.050d)w

Explanation:

Owen gets paid $280 per week

=$280 per week

Plus 5% commission on all sales of electronic equipment

=0.05

If he sells the dollar(d) worth of electronic equipment in one week

=(0.05d)w

Total earnings

=280w+0.05(d)w

Factorise

=(280+0.05d)w

Owen=(280+0.05d)w

c. (280+ 0.050d)w

*0.050=0.05
