    A) $1,750

    B) $95

    C) $3,650

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Explanation A)

    This question is telling you to replace x with 0. So you would multiply 95 x 0. Anything multiplied by 0 is 0.

    y = 1750 + 95 (0) = 1750

    y = $1750

    *Reminder that Y is his total pay.

    Explanation B)

    This question wants you to look at the numbers beside x. The number 95 is beside x. That is what he is charging for each copy.

    Let's say we ignore his $1750.

    If Erick sold 15 copies. X would only be multipled to what is beside it.

    95 * 15 = 1425

    Think of x as just an placeholder.

    Explanation C)

    In the question, we are told that "x represent the number of copies of math is fun he sells".

    So, he sold 20 copies. We will replace x with 20.

    y = 1750 + 95 (20)

    y = 1750 + 1900

    y = 3650
