Rachel works at an electronics store in a shopping mall. Her base pay is $1000 a month. Rachel also receives a commission of 2% of her sales total. The linear model that gives Rachel's total monthly pay, y, in terms of sales total, x, is y = 0.02x + 1000. What is the slope of the line and what does it mean?
