Answer:
The required equation is [tex]e=6.50x+0.04y[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
The number of hours Mike works = x
The number of total sales he has = y (in dollars)
Now, Mike earns $6.50 per hour.
So, the total amount Mike earns after working 'x' hours = [tex]6.50x[/tex] dollars.
Also, he earns 4% of the total sales.
Amount earned by Mike from the total sales = 4% of 'y' = [tex]0.04y[/tex]
Thus, the total earnings of Mike is given by,
Total earnings = Earnings per hour + Earnings through sale
i.e. [tex]e=6.50x+0.04y[/tex]
The required equation is [tex]e=6.50x+0.04y[/tex]
