Answer:
wym? i need more information
Explanation:
I believe its either Rising action or the climax.
D, using language to express the opposite of its literal meaning.
If "y" represents the monthly salary of a salesman then we can rearrange the equation so that "y" is in evidence:
y=2000+100x
If he sells no computers and "x" is the number of computer systems he sells, then x=0.
y=2000+100*0 <=> y=2000+0 <=> y=2000
If the salesman sells no computers, his monthly salary is of 2000.
The effect of the simile in this passage makes the passage more interesting and gives it that extra "boost" to help the reader understand what is going on.
Hope this helps!
