Company A
Income = 35,000 + 0.03x

Company B
Income = 25,000 + 0.05x

set them equal to see how much of sales Julia needs to make the same income at both companies.

30,000 + 0.03x = 25,000 + 0.05x
30,000 - 25,000 = 0.05x - 0.03x
5,000 = 0.02x
5,000/0.02 = x
250,000 = x

Company A has better base salary and so would pay better if less than 250,000 sales are made. Company B has bigger percent bonus and would be a better deal if more than 250,000 sales are made.

So it's the 2nd choice.

What is the equation of the line for this function? (0,0), (2,1), (4,2), (6,3).

The coordinate set (0, 0), (2, 1), (4, 2), (6, 3) represents a straight line. Since the first point is (0, 0) the y-intercept is 0. Now, lets solve for the slope (we can use any of the four points to solve).

Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

= 2-1/4-1

= 1/2

Now that we know what the slope is, we can write the equation of the line.

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b (m = slope and b = y-intercept)

y = 1/2x

Lets find the exponential equation for the line.

y = ab²

1 = ab²

1/a = ab²/a

1/a = b²

√1/a = √b²
