Create a linear equation that represents the following scenario. Malia is working for a rate of $17.35 an hour. She got a hiring bonus of $100. What equation would represent the amount of money she would take in based on the number of hours, x?(1 point)
The linear equation representing the amount of money Malia would take in based on the number of hours, x, is:
y = 17.35x + 100
Where:
y represents the total amount of money Malia would take in,
x represents the number of hours worked,
17.35 represents the rate she is working for per hour, and
