Please Help!

1. Define an example of a function – this could be distance traveled vs. time, the cost
of a turkey vs. weight, ect.

2. Show this relation as a set of correctly determined ordered pairs -- you will need
at least 5 ordered pairs in set notation -- remember that set notation will look
like: {(1, 2)(3, 4)(5, 6)(7, 8)(9, 10)} with the { } around the ordered pairs.

Can you please explain how you did it. I want to understand. (30pts)

I pay a babysitter $8 per hour.


p=8t

where p = pay ($) and t = time (hr)

Pick some values for t and substitute them into the formula to get the corresponding pay.

(0, 0) <--- no hours, no pay
(1, 8) <--- one hour, pay $8
(2, 16) <--- two hours, pay $16

etc.


\{(0,0), (1,8), (2,16), (3, 24), (4, 32), (5, 40)\}
