Heather is a software saleswoman. her base salary is 1900, and she makes an additional $40 for every copy of math is fun she sells.
let P represent her total pay (in dollars) and N represent the number of copies of math is fun she sells. write and equation relating P to N and use this equation to find her total pay if she sells 27 copies of math is fun. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

$P = 1900 + 40N$

$P = 2980$ when N = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Base\ Salary = 1900$

$Additional = 40$ per copy

Solving (a): Her total pay (P)

This is represented by:

$P = Base\ Salary + Additional * N$

$P = 1900 + 40 * N$

$P = 1900 + 40N$

Solving (b): Total pay when N = 27

Substitute 27 for N

$P = 1900 + 40 * 27$

$P = 1900 + 1080$

$P = 2980$
