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:

y = 250x + 2175

Explanation:

Mr. Jensen month pay = 2175

Commission per policy = 250

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

y = 250x + 2175

Thank you.
