Answer:

1750

Step-by-step explanation:

Earns per week: $560

Total sales per week: [tex]x[/tex]

Weekly commission on sales: 0.08[tex]x[/tex]

Total Earning per week: [tex]560 + 0.08x[/tex]

[tex]560 + 0.08x \geqslant 700[/tex]

Simplifying this inequality:

[tex]560 + 0.08x \geqslant 700\\0.08x \geqslant 700 - 560\\0.08x \geqslant 140\\\\x \geqslant \frac{140}{0.08}\\\\x \geqslant 1750[/tex]

Her sales must be at least $1750.
