Answer:

Total compensation = 600 + 0.04 * s  and a total last month of $1200

(which agrees with the second answer shown in the provided list)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total compensation comes from the addition of base salary ($600) plus 4% (0.04) of the sales (s). That means:

Total compensation = 600 + 0.04 * s

and since last month he brought $15000 in sales, he got from sales:

0.04 * 15000 = $600

which added to the base salary gives:

$600 + $600 = $1200
