Jamal works in retail and earns a base monthly salary plus a commission for his sales for each month. His salary can be modeled by the equation shown in the box, where y represents his total earnings,

y = 3,400 + 0.05x
Based on the model, what would be Jamal's salary, in dollars, for a month where he made no sales?
