Answer:

d: m=15c

Explanation:

Usually (not always), variable y depends on variable x.

Since in this question, the amount of money Paul can earn changes based on the number of cars he washes, y is the amount of money, and x is the number of cars he washes.

This can be represented as: 120 = 8 times ___

___ is the amount of money Paul earns by cleaning 1 car.

___ is 120 divided by 8, which is 15.

--> Paul earns $15 by cleaning each car.

The new equation will be m = 15c
