It's still the same answer. Blank space is just a reminder both x and y are in dollars.
This question reminds me of a Sam's club membership. If you pay 100$ for the membership and get a 2% discount on all products, x would be how much money you spend on stuff in the store and y is the membership cost minus the amount of money you saved shopping there. So, y basically tells you whether the membership is a good deal or not depending on the individual's spending habits.
