Sarah has a job at a salon and she earns $50 per day plus tips. Her average tip is 15% of the total amount her customers spend on services.

Sarah's daily income is represented by the variable y and the amount her customers spend is represented by the variable x.

Which equation represents Sarah's daily income?



y = 0.5x + 15

y = 50x + 15

y = 15x + 50

y = 0.15x + 50

Answer 1

If Sarah's daily income is represented by the variable y and the amount her customers spend is represented by the variable x, then the answer is
y = 0.15x + 50

Answer 2

she makes 50 per day so that would be the constant number

o you have y = 50 + something

her tips are 15% , which is 0.15x

so her pay would be y = 0.15x +50
