To express Emily's total earnings (y) in relation to the number of meals (x), we start with her monthly salary of $2,500 and then add $30 for each meal she prepares.
The correct expression for her earnings would be:
\[ y = 2500 + 30x \]
This indicates that her total earnings are the base salary of $2,500 plus $30 multiplied by the number of meals (x).
So the correct equation is:
**y = 2500 + 30x**
The correct expression for her earnings would be:
\[ y = 2500 + 30x \]
This indicates that her total earnings are the base salary of $2,500 plus $30 multiplied by the number of meals (x).
So the correct equation is:
**y = 2500 + 30x**
