Answer:

The y-intercept of the function is 95 which represents the base pay Jacob makes regardless of computer sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob would make $95 even when selling $0 worth of computers, meaning 95 represents Jacob's base pay rate, the amount he is guaranteed to make regardless of how many dollars worth of sales he makes that day.

Have a good day :)
