Answer:

  y = 0.15x + 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Jayne's salary equation will be of the form ...

  salary = commission + base wage

Letting y represent Jayne's salary, and x her sales amount, we can write this as ...

  y = (15%)x +500

Of course, 15% = 0.15, so this is ...

  y = 0.15x +500 . . . . . matches the last choice
