You can put this solution on YOUR website! Jake works as a car salesman. To determine his weekly salary, Jake earns a base rate of $850.00 per week plus a 3% commission of the sale price of the car. Does this real life example represent a function? Explain your answer
--------------
Jake's salary = 850 + 0.03x, where x is the sale price of all the cars he sells.

Yes it is a function because each value of x results in one salary value for
Jake.
