Answer with explanation:

Slope of line ,that models his total pay in dollars as it relates to the number of hours he has worked = 25

And, y Intercept of Line = 15

Equation of line in slope Intercept form is given by:

y = m x + c, where, m is the slope of line, and c is y intercept.

We have to find the equation of line, which is representation of Owen pay in dollars and number of hours he worked.

So, equation of line is given by:

→ y =25 x + 15

Owen is an hourly employee, and the line that models his total pay in dollars as it-example-1
