Answer 1

y = 7.50x.....y = earnings per week , x = number of packages delivered

48 packages.....so x = 48
y = 7.50(48)
y = 360.....so if he delivers 48 packages, he earns $ 360

Answer 2

He earned $ 360.00.

Explanation:

Given,

The amount he gets for a package of delivery = $ 7.50

The number of packages he delivered in a week = 48,

Hence, the amount he earned in the week = The amount he gets for a package of delivery × The number of packages he delivered

= 7.50 × 48

= $ 360.00
