Answer

I) A job pays $15/hr with no bonus first day pay.

II) A job pays $15/hr with a $20 bonus first day pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercepts would represent additional income that is added on to the base wage. It means it is what the worker would already earn (one-time), adding on to their standard pay.

Let X represent hours, and the y-intercept be what is mentioned above.

I) 15x + 0

II) 15x + 20
