Kira is a software saleswoman. Her base salary is $1600, and she makes an additional $60 for every copy of "English is Fun" she
sells. Let P represent her total pay (in dollars), and let N represent the number of of copies of "English of Fun" she sells. Write an equation relating P to N. Then use this equation to find her total pay if she sells 29 copies of "English is Fun". Equation - Total pay if Lira sells 29 copies -
Since we know she gets $1,600 as a base, and $60 <em>each book</em>, we have to add a variable to 60 to show how many books she sells. Your first equation will be P (which is the total) = 1,600 + 60N. Now, we have to replace N with 29. You now have P = 1,600 + 60(29) = 1,600 + 1,740 = $3,340. That's your answer!
