ANSWER

The correct answer is A


y-68=2(x-4)


Step-by-step explanation

We were told that Zada is paid at an hourly rate of $
12 per hour.


The unit rate of payment represents the slope of the straight line graph that models Zada's earnings. Thus
m=12


When she works for 4 hours she earns a total of $68 tells us that the point,
(4,68) lies on the model straight line.


Using the formula for the point slope form


y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

we obtain the equation as follows.


y-68=2(x-4)
