Answer:

y = 0.1x+200

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's establish that:

x is independent

y is dependent

Basically, the value of y will depend on what x is.

The problem states that the slope of the line is Dave's comission, so since he makes 10% of comission, we can make the slope as 0.1x (mx)

The problem also states that the y intercept (b) is Dave's base salary, and earlier in the problem it states that his base salary is $200 a week. Therefore, b=200

now, the equation is:

y=0.1x+200

Hope this helps!
