Question

Jody works at the finish line and gets $36 each day he works plus $1.50 for each pair of shoes he sells. Write a function to represent the total (y) he will make in one day in relation to the number of shoes he sells.

Answer 1

Answer: y=36+1.50x

Explanation:

Given: Daily wages = $36

Commission per pair of shoes he sells = $1.50

Let y= Total he will make in one day by selling x shoes .

Total earnings per day = Daily wages + Commission (Number of shoes)

y=36+1.50x

Hence, a function to represent the total (y) he will make in one day in relation to the number of shoes he sells: y=36+1.50x
