Answer:

a. $395

b. $(350 + 0.15x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Her income in a week can be written as;

$350 + 15% of sales

a. In the case of $300 sales in a week

Mathematically, that would be;

$350 + 15% of $300

$350 + (15/100 * 300)

$350 + $45 = $395

b. In the case of $x in sales

= $350 + 15% of x

= $350 + (15/100 * x)

= $350 + 0.15x

= $(350 + 0.15x)
