    Let S = the amount of sales.

    She earns 4% of her sales, this would be written as 0.4S (you multiply the percent as a decimal by the amount of sales).

    You then need to add that amount to her salary so you now have 0.4s + 2100

    She wants to earn at least 2900 so the inequality becomes:

    2900 ≥ 0.4s + 2100

    Her sales would need to be:

    800 ≥0.4s

    s≥ 800/0.4

    s ≥ 2000
