Question

Jessie works as a salesman. He earns a daily wage of 250 pesos and an additional

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = 250 + \frac{10x}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Daily\ Wages = 250$

$Additional = 10$ for every 3

Required

Determine the function that represents Jessie's daily earnings:

From the question, we have that:

y = earnings

x = phones

If for 3 phones, he gets 10.

i.e.:

3 pieces = 10

then

$1\ pieces = \frac{10}{3}$ ----- By dividing both sides by 3

and

$x\ pieces = \frac{10x}{3}$ ----- By multiplying both sides by x

The above expression represents the additional earnings for x phones

So, daily earnings y is calculated as :

$y = Daily\ Wages + Additional\ Earnings$

$y = 250 + \frac{10x}{3}$
