Answer 1

Louis earns 15 dollars per hour.

Explanation:

In proportionality, we use
`y=mx`. M would be the slope or unit rate.

In
`y=15x`, 15 replaces m. So, 15 would be the unit rate for Louis.

Louis earns 15 dollars per hour.

Answer 2

Answer: Louis earns $15 per hour

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the equation given:

Amount of money Louis earns

y=15x

Since "y" is the total amount he earns, and "x" is the number of hours he works, 15 is equal to the earnings per hour.

For example, if he works 1 hour:

y = 15 (1)

y =15

If he works 1 hour, he earns $15.
