    To answer this item, we let x be the amount of sales for each of them. Their weekly earnings would be as follows,

    Rico:

    750 + 0.05x

    Sean:

    1100 + 0.025x

    Equating both expressions,

    750 + 0.05x = 1100 + 0.025x

    Simplifying,

    0.025x = 350

    The value of x from the equation is 14000.

    Answer: $14,000.
