$25 + .10s= total paycheck

Answer: The required expression would be 25+0.1×25 = $27.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of base pay = $25

Rate of commission = 10%

Amount of commission is given by

\(\dfrac{10}{100}\times 25\\\\=0.10\times 25\\\\=\$2.5\)

So, total paycheck for each week would be

\(\$25+\$2.5\\\\=\$27.5\)

Hence, the required expression would be 25+0.1×25 = $27.5.
