Question

Mr. tally sells insurance. He receives a salary of 400$ per week, plus 35$ for each new insurance policy he sells. How much will mr.tally earn for the week if he sells 5 new policies?

Answer 1

$575

Explanation:

Given that,

Fixed salary = $400

He receives 400$ per week, plus 35$ for each new insurance policy he sells.

Let he sells x new policies, then the equation will become,

y = 400+35x

Where y is total earning

We have, x = 5

So,

y = 400+35(5)

= $575

So, he will earn $575 for the week.
