Question

Can you explain how to do this in steps plz?

Kelly sells ice cream bars at the beach. In addition to a fixed salary, she earns a commission for each ice cream bar she sells. The table shows Kelly's total earnings, y, in dollars, from selling x bars of ice cream:



Ice Cream Sales and Earnings

Number of Bars Sold ( x) Total Earnings (dollars) (y)

0_______________________ 50

1 ________________________52

2 _______________________54

3 _______________________56



Which equation best shows the relationship between x and y?

y = 2x + 50

y = x + 52

y = 2x + 52

y = x + 50

Answer 1

Answer:

y =2x+50

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 2x +50

Step-by-step explanation:

so y is the earnings

and her earning from the bars of icecream is $2 each

and her fixed salary is $50

you know this because

even before she sold an icecream she was earning $50 so thats the fixed part of her salary

then from 0 to 1 she earns $2 more. so she earns $2 per icecream

so

y = 2x + 50
