Question

Aster sells used cars. She earns no base pay, but is paid a commission of 25% for each car sold which can be modeled by the equation y = 0.25x, where x represents the total dollar amount of car sales. What is the meaning of the x-intercept in the equation?

Explanation:

Answer 2

The equation can also be seen as y = 0.25x + 0.

There is no x-intercept in the equation. This means that Aster has no base pay, or no starting pay. So all of her earnings only depend on x amount of car sales.
