A salesman is paid 300 dollars a week and a bonus of 0.15 cents for every item that he sells. How much will he make in one week if he sold 1400 items?

let 't' represent the amount of money he is paid


this equation applies:

t = 1400*0.15 + 300

-----------------

solve for 't'

t=510


The salesman would earn $510 in one week.
