Rate of change = 250.

Katie's salary is increasing $250 per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of weeks.

We have been given that Katie is just hired at a new sales company. She is given a $500 hiring bonus.This means that initial value or y-intercept is 500.

Additionally she earns an average commission of $250 per week. So the commission after w weeks will be 250*x.

Upon using our given information we can form an equation as:

Since we know that an equation of line in slope-intercept form is: , where,

m = Slope or rate of change.

b = The y-intercept.

Upon comparing our equation with slope-intercept form of equation we can see that rate of change for Katie's salary is 250, which means Katie's salary is increasing $250 per week.    

8(-10x+3.5y-7)

8×-10x + 8×3.5y + 8×-7

-80x + 28y - 56

therefore

-80x+28y-56 is the correct answer

there are infinitely many solutions.
