Question

Elijah goa a new job and was given a hiring bonus along with his monthly salary. His earnings after x months are modeled by the function f (x) =1,800x+500. How much did he receive as a hiring bonus?

Answer 1

In the function \( f(x) = 1800x + 500 \), the term \( 1800x \) represents Elijah's earnings from his monthly salary, and the constant term \( 500 \) represents his hiring bonus.

Thus, Elijah received a hiring bonus of **$500**.
