    S (x) = 360 + 0.025x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let Sm be Salary per month

    Let x be sales per month

    Let S (x) be savings per month

    Sm = 1800 + 0.1x

    where 0.1x is the commission on sales

    S (x) = 20% of 1800 + 25% of 0.1x

    20% of 1800 = 20/100 * 1800 = 360

    25% of 0.1x = 25/100 * 0.1x = 0.025x

    Therefore,

    S (x) = 360 + 0.025x
