Danielle earned $979.75 last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Base salary = $625 per week

Commission = 8.25%

Cost of items sold = $4300

Amount of commission = $8.25\% \of \cost\ of\ sold\ items$

$Amount\ of\ commission=\frac{8.25}{100}*4300\\Amount\ of\ commission=\frac{35475}{100}\\Amount\ of\ commission=\$354.75$

Total earning last week = Base salary per week + amount of commission

$Total\ earning = 625+354.75\\Total\ earning=\$979.75$

Danielle earned $979.75 last week.
