Question

Type the correct answer in the box. Mr. Jensen is a salesperson for an insurance company. His monthly paycheck includes a base salary of $2,175 and a commission of $250 for each policy he sells. Write an equation, in slope-intercept form, that represents the total amount, y, in dollars, of Mr. Jensen's paycheck in a month when he sells x policies. Do not include dollar signs in the equation.

Answer 1

y= 250x + 2175

Explanation:

the slope intercept form is y = mx + b so you would put 250 for the M because it depends on each policy he sells which is X so y = 250x + b and B is the fixed price of 2,175 so you would get Y = 250x + 2175 as your answer

Answer 2

The required answer is
`y = 250x + 2175`.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The base salary of Mr. Jensen is 2175.

The commission per policy is 250.

The slope intercept form is:

`y = mx + c`

Where, m is slope and c is y intercept.

Let "x" be the number of policy Mr. Jensen sells and "y" is the total paycheck including the commission.

`y = 250x + 2175`

Therefore, the required answer is
`y = 250x + 2175`.
