Question

Which equation represents the table shown?

Hours Money ($)

15 127.50

25 212.50

35 297.50


A. y = 8.5x B. y = 8.5x + 12.50 C. y = 15x D. y = 15x + 12.509

Answer 1

the answer is y=8.5x

Explanation:

because x would equal the hours and y would equal the money.

so you divide y by x, so in this case it would be 127.50/15 and that equals 8.5

so the multiplier or constant of proportionality, if thats what you guys call it, is 8.5.
