Answer:

y=6.25x+125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

John began his job making $125 the first week. After that he was paid $6.25 per hour.

Here $125 is fixed and $6.25 increase per hour. It means we can write the equation as follows :

y = 125 + 6.25 x

The general equation for the slope-intercept form is given by :

y = mx+x

m is slope

So, the equation in slope intercept form is given by :

y=6.25x+125

Hence, this is the required solution.
