he doesn't deliver any newspapers means x=0, so y = 30x0 + 18=18
the answer is 18 cents

Answer:

18 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount he earns from delivering newspapers is given by:

[tex]y = 30x + 18[/tex] ---1

y is the amount he earns in cents

x is the number of houses he delivers newspapers

Since we are given that  he doesn't deliver any newspapers on a certain day

So, x = 0

Substituting value of x in 1

[tex]y = 30*0 + 18[/tex]

[tex]y =18[/tex]

So, [tex](x_0,y_0)=(0,18)[/tex]

Thus  he is paid 18 cents if he doesn't deliver any newspapers.
