Answered by GPT-4o mini
To find the commission earned by the salesperson, you can use the given equation \( c = 0.11s \), where \( s \) is the amount sold.

In this case, \( s = 5000 \).

Now, substitute \( s \) into the equation:

\[
c = 0.11 \times 5000
\]

Calculating that:

\[
c = 0.11 \times 5000 = 550
\]

Thus, the commission she will earn if the amount sold is $5000 is **$550**.
