The problem from the image can be summarized as follows:

- Veronica sells Internet ads over the phone.
- She earns **$12 per hour** and **$15 per ad** she sells.
- She works **4 hours per day**, **5 days a week**.
- She sells an average of **13 ads per day**.

We are asked to find her **weekly earnings**.

### Steps to calculate:
1. **Hourly Earnings:** She works 4 hours a day for 5 days, so:
   \[
   \text{Total hours per week} = 4 \, \text{hours/day} \times 5 \, \text{days/week} = 20 \, \text{hours/week}
   \]
   \[
   \text{Hourly pay} = 20 \, \text{hours/week} \times 12 \, \text{\$ per hour} = 240 \, \text{\$ per week}
   \]

2. **Ad Earnings:** She sells an average of 13 ads per day for 5 days, so:
   \[
   \text{Total ads per week} = 13 \, \text{ads/day} \times 5 \, \text{days/week} = 65 \, \text{ads/week}
   \]
   \[
   \text{Ad pay} = 65 \, \text{ads/week} \times 15 \, \text{\$ per ad} = 975 \, \text{\$ per week}
   \]

3. **Total Weekly Earnings:** Adding both the hourly and ad earnings:
   \[
   \text{Total earnings} = 240 \, \text{\$} + 975 \, \text{\$} = 1215 \, \text{\$}
   \]

Thus, Veronica's weekly earnings are **\$1,215**.

Would you like more details or explanations? 

Here are some related questions:
1. How would her earnings change if she worked more hours per day?
2. What if she sold fewer ads per day, say 10 instead of 13?
3. How much would she earn in a month?
4. What would be her total earnings if the ad commission was \$20 instead of \$15 per ad?
5. How would her weekly earnings change if she took a day off?

**Tip:** Always break a word problem down into simple steps to avoid errors.

Veronica sells Internet ads over the phone. She is paid $12 per hour plus $15 for every ad she sells. She works 4 hours a day, 5 days a week and sells on average 13 ads per day. What are her weekly earnings?
