A function that relates the commission earned to the profit on the car is $900 < p < $1,500

How to get the function

We have that that profit is less than 900,

The salesman has 0.15p that is 15 percent.

If the profit is between 900 and 1500, then the salesman would get 17%

Hence to represent this we would have the function that directly interprets the statement as

1. 0.15p =  p < $900

2. 0.17p = $900 < p < $1,500
