Question

Robert works at a car dealership. Each month, he receives a base salary of $1,554.00, plus a commission of $429.00 for each vehicle he sells. Which of the following equations could be used to determine Robert's total income each month? (Let x represent the number of cars sold by Robert and y represent his total monthly income.) A. y = $429x + $1,554 B. y = $1,554x + $429 C. y = $429x

Answer 1

Answer: A. Y=$429x + $1,554.

Explanation:

The reason being is that 429 dollars Is the money added each time he sells a car so X represents the amount of cars he sells which is unknown thus why it is X so it would be the amount of cars he sells (X) multiplied by 429 dollars. Adding 1,554 to the total because that is base salary so he makes that whether he sells a vehicle or does not. So it’s the amount of cars multiplied by the commission and adding on the base salary. Hope this helped.
