The correct answer is A. Not only does $250 a week equal $1000 a month but the commission is also higher.
first job: $250wk = $1000 Month + .045 commission
= $12000 year + .045 commission
second job = $1800 Month + .03 commission
= $21600 year + .03 commission
commission based on sales of $1,000,000
1,000,000 times .045 = $45000
1,000,000 times .030 = $30000
FIRST JOB: $12,000 + $45,000 = $57,000
SECOND JOB: $21,600 + $30,000 = $51,600
The answer is definitely A.

Answer: x=2 and y=3
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
m [slope] = ∆y/∆x = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁
m [slope] = 9 - 6 / 4 - 1 = 3 / 3 = 1
The equation for this relationship is
y = x + 5
