Answer:

$2,812.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> amount that Sarah earn this month

x ----> amount of sales over $5,750

we know that

5%=5/100=0.05

The linear equation that represent this situation is

y=4(525)+0.05(x)

Find the value of x

x=20,000-5750=$14,250

substitute

y=4(525)+0.05(14,250)=$2,812.50
