Bill monthly salary is $2100 plus an additional $100 for every copy of history is fun

We set S to represent his total monthly salary and N the total number of copies that he sells

Therefore, 2100 is an independent value and 100 depends on the number of sells

then, the equation is:


S=2100+100N

To graph the equation, we need to find the x-intercept and y-intercept:

To find the y-intercept, set x=0:

In this case, x is represented by N, and y is represented by S:


S(0)=2100+100(0)
s(0)=2100

So the graph starts at S=2100, point (S,N) = (2100, 0)

Then,

when he sells one book

N=1


S=2100+100(1)=2200

Y = 2200

-When he sells 2 books

N =2


S=2100+100(2)=2300

S=2300

- When he sells 3 books

N =3


S=2100+100(3)=2400

then, S=2400

- When he sells 4 books

N = 4


S=2100+100(4)=2500

Then, S=2500

Therefore, his salary depends on how many books he sells, then change the N value to find all the points of the graps
