Answer:

$778.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Sandy worked 80 hours over the last two weeks. She makes $6 per hour, so she earned

[tex]\$6\cdot 80=\$480[/tex]

Sandy had a total of $2,986 in sales before taxes. Sandy earns 10% commission on her sales, so

[tex]\$2,986\cdot 0.1=\$298.60[/tex]

is Sandy's earning on sales.

In total, Sandy earned

[tex]\$480+\$298.60=\$778.60[/tex]
