Answer:

C) $283.00

Step-by-step explanation:

His expected total earnings in one week are the sum of the salary and the two commissions.

salary: $120

commission at 1%: 1% * $3,000 = 0.01 * $3,000 = $30

commission at 2%:

The commission at 2% applies to the amount of sales in excess of $3,000.

$9,650 - $3,000 = $6,650

The 2% commission applies to $6,650.

commission at 2%: 2% * $6,650 = 0.02 * $6,650 = $133

Total earnings: $120 + $30 + $133 = $283

Answer: $283
