You have a dog-walking business. You charge $12 per hour. Let's define n as the amount you earn and h as the number of

hours you work. You want to make $30, so you figure you need to work 2.5 hours.
Sort the solution methods by whether they are correct or incorrect methods to solve the problem.

Answer:


n = 12h

Explanation:

Given


r = 12/hr --- rate


h \to hours


n \to amount

Required

Determine which solution is correct or incorrect

The solutions are not given. So, I will provide a general explanation

The amount (n) is calculated as:


n = r * h

So, we have:


n = 12 * h


n = 12h

The above is the general equation to solve for the amount, given h hours

When h = 2.5, we have:


n = 12*2.5


n = 30
