Answer: y=2x+50



Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The salary of Kelly is fixed but she earns a commission for each ice cream she sells.

Thus, Her earning will be a linear function dependent upon the number of bars she sold.

Since y represents the total earning of Kelly on selling x bars of ice- cream.

We can see at x=0, y=50

Thus her fixed salary=$50

Then, y=mx+50, where m is the commission she gets for each ice cream.

Also at x=1, y=52.....> put thus in above equation

Then, 52=m(1)+50\\\Rightarrow\ m=52-50\\\Rightarrow\ m=2

hence, the equation best shows the relationship between x and y is :-

y=2x+50

To turn a decimal into a fraction move the decimal point two spots over (Ex: 0.34=34%). To turn a fraction into a decimal get the denominator to 100 by multiplying both the top and bottom by whatever number needed (must both be multiplied by the same number) or divide to top number into the bottom number of you can’t multiply.
