Question: Finding out My Monthly Wage

I'm reading this book : Algebra and Trigonometry - Real Mathematics, Real People, 7th Edition

Chapter 1 Functions and Their Graphs, Example 7, Monthly Wage , Page 80.

I'm trying to plot for a monthly wage.

The inital equation is:

y = 2000 + 0.1*x

Then other changes:

a. Sales are $1480 in August. What are your wages for that month?
b. You receive $2225 for September. What are your sales for that month?

I'm lost. Which is better Numerical Solution or Graphical Solution?

Thanks in Advance,

Paul
