Question

Carson is a salesman at an insurance company. He receives a monthly salary of $907.00 and a $244.00 commission on each

policy he sells. If Carson receives his commission check at the end of the month along with his salary check, which of the following
equations can be used to determine his total pay for the month.
(Let x represent the number of policies sold and y represent the total amount of pay for the month.)
A. y = 907x + 244
B. y = 244x + 907
C.y = 24.4x + 907
D. y = 244x

Answer 1

The answer is B

Step by step explanation:
Y = total amount made per month
X= the number of policies sold

Since you don’t know how much he sells per month you would do
Y= $244x + $907
