Question

Jacey, a commissioned salesperson, earns $210 base pay plus $32 per item sold. Express Jacey's gross salary G as a function of the number of items sold.

A. G(x) = 32(x + 210)
B. G(x)= 210(x +32)
C. G(x) = 210x +32
D. G(x)= 32x + 210

Answer 1

D. G(x)= 32x + 210

Explanation:

x stands for the number of items she has sold. If she earns $32 for every item sold, you can use 32x to find how much she makes off of items alone. To get her full gross salary, you add the $210 base pay to 32x.
