Options:

  1. 30; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
  2. 30; it represents the cost for insurance
  3. 10; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
  4. 10; it represents the cost for insurance

The answer is the third option "10; it represents the hourly wage for the worker." 10 would be the slope and if x represents hours then 10 would represent the amount of money the worker would get every hour.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the local ice cream shop is deciding whether or not to hire a new worker. The shop must pay the worker hourly and cover a daily cost for insurance. The cost to pay an hourly worker for one day is represented by the function y=10x+30 where x=hours.

We find that this is of the form y = mx+B where

m=10 and B =30

Hence slope =m =10

Answer is 10

and it represents the rate of change of y for a unit change in x.
