Question

Chang earns 51 dollars per week working part-time at a book store.

He makes one more dollar more for each book that he sells. The
amount, A (in dollars), that Chang earns in a week if he sells b
books

Answer 1

Explanation:

Chang earns 51 dollars per week from his part-time work, regardless of the number of books he sells. For each book he sells, he earns an additional dollar. If he sells b books in a week, he will earn an additional b dollars.

Therefore, the amount, A (in dollars), that Chang earns in a week if he sells b books can be calculated using the following formula:

A = 51 + b

This formula takes into account Chang's base pay of 51 dollars per week and the additional amount he earns for selling b books.
