plug in 2 for x in 0.35x and add 11 then you will get your y value. Y will be your answer

Since the employee earns y = 0.35x + 11
here x is not defined
However, we need to find the hourly wage for an employee who produces 2 units per hour.
since x = 2
& y = 0.35x + 11
where, 11 will remain constant
the value of y will be
y = 0.35*2 + 11
y = 0.70 + 11
y = 11.70 (in dollars)

If An employee who produces x units per hour earns an hourly wage of y = 0.35x + 11 (in dollars). Find the hourly wage for an employee who produces 2 units per hour.
then you substitute x for 2.
y=0.35(2)+11
y=0.7+11
y=11.7/hour
hope this helps :)

1 unit = (0.35x/x) + 11
therefore
2 units = (0.35 x 2) + 11 dollars

given:
y=0.35x+11
&
x=2
y=0.35*2+11=11.7 or $11.70/hr

y=.35(2) + 11
y=.7 + 11
y= 11.70 per hr.
