9514 1404 393

  $6545.45

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let s represent Caitlin's sales for the week, then her gross pay is ...

  pay = 200 +0.055s

When her pay is 560, her sales are ...

  560 = 200 +0.055s

  360 = 0.055s . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 200

  360/0.055 = s = 6545.45 . . . divide by 0.055

Caitlin's sales for the week are $6545.45.

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
