Answer 1

m=15

Explanation:

Oh, I think I answered this question recently, but it's m=15c

The explanation for the question was written in my other response.

Answer 2

d. m = 15c

Explanation:

Directly proportional means as one amount increases, another amount increases at the same rate.

Proportionality can be used to set up an equation.

Given variables:

• m = amount of money earned (in dollars)
• c = number of cars washed

If m is directly proportional to c then:
`m \propto c`

Convert this to an equation by using a constant of proportionality, k:

`\implies m=kc`

We are told that Paul washed 8 cars and earned $120.

Substitute these values into the found equation and solve for k:

`\implies 120=8k`

`\implies k=(120)/(8)`

`\implies k=15`

Finally, substitute the found constant of proportionality (k) into the equation:

`\implies m=15c`
