Layla is a salesperson who sells computers at an electronics store. She is paid a \( 1.5 \% \) commission for every computer sale she makes, and also makes a base pay each day regardless of sales. One day, Layla sold \( \$ 2000 \) worth of computers and was paid a total of \( \$ 80 \) that day. Write an equation for \( P \), in terms of \( x \), representing Layla's total pay on a day on which she sells \( x \) dollars worth of computers.
