Question

Crew b earns $315 after 3 hours, $525 after 5 hours, and $735 after 7 hours of work. Explain whether or not Crew b's data show a proportional relationship. If the data are proportional, identify the constant of proportionality.

Answer 1

it in creases by 110 every hour

Answer 2

Crew B's data shows a proportional relationship.

Explanation:

This is because the constant of proportionality in each example given ($315 and 3 hours, $525 and 5 hours, $735 and 7 hours), is the same number with all of the values, which is 105. You can find this by dividing the dependant variable by the independent variable (In this case the money earned is dependant and the number of hours worked is independent).
