Answer:

Donny West received $1245000 in royalties last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 CD = $5

Cost of 1000000 CD = [tex]1000000 \times 5=5000000[/tex]

Cost of 1 video = $6

Cost of 550000 videos = [tex]550000 \times 6=3300000[/tex]

Total sales = 5000000+3300000 = 8300000

Now we are given that Rock musician Donny West is paid 15% on his CD sales and tour video sales.

So, Donny West received in royalties last year = 15% of 8300000

= [tex]\frac{15}{100} \times 8300000[/tex]

= [tex]1245000[/tex]

Hence Donny West received $1245000 in royalties last year.
