  2. Calculate Total Pay: Calculate Luis's total pay for the week.\newlineLuis's total pay is the sum of his base salary and the commission he earned from sales.\newlineBase salary = $150.00\$150.00\newlineCommission from sales = $847.00\$847.00\newlineTotal pay = Base salary + Commission\newlineTotal pay = $150.00\$150.00 + $847.00\$847.00\newlineTotal pay = $997.00\$997.00
