Answer:
full question Grace is an hourly employee, and the line that models her total pay in dollars
as it relates to the number of hours she has worked has a slope of 45 and a y
intercept of 35. Which statement is true?
A. Grace's wage is $35 an hour, and it appears that she received a
signing bonus of $45.
B. Grace's wage is $35 an hour, but it appears that she received no
signing bonus.
C. Grace's wage is $45 an hour, and it appears that she received a
signing bonus of $35.
D. Grace's wage is $45 an hour, but it appears that she received no
signing bonus.
Explanation:
if x is the amount of hours worked, 45 is the slope and the y intercept is 35.
A linear equation has the form of y = ax + b, where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept, then the equation that we have is:
y = 45*x + 35
this means that she wins $45 per hour, and has a plane amount of $35, indiferent of the amount of hours worked.
Then the correct answer is
C) Grace's wage is $45 an hour, and it appears that she received a signing bonus of $35.
