A law firm uses a graph of this equation to work out the monthly pay for staff:
y = 20x + 1750
where x is the number of new clients and y is the total monthly
pay (£).
a Draw the graph of this equation.
The pay includes a basic payment (£), and then an amount (£) for
every new client.
b What is the basic payment?

if you was gonna solve for a, a is a   < -12

a

step-by-step explanation:

you didn't post any answer choices, so its not 100% clear what your teacher is looking for

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)

its line 2 i just added the rest or else it wouldn't let me answer
