Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ruth's salary is s(j), where s represents salary and j the number of jars she sells.

At the very beginning, she receives $50.  Only answer 'd' could be correct.

But also, the equation has the variable part 0.65j, or

$0.65j, which is directly proportional to the unit price of the jars of jelly.

*

Summing up the fixed and variable parts, we get

s = $50 + ($0.65j), or s = $50 + ($0.65/jar)j    This is Answer D.
