Based on the data in the table, write an equation that can be used to determine the amount of money Nina earns given the number of hours she works. Show your work or explain how you determined your equation. Be sure to define your variables.

Answer 1

y2-y1/x2-x1

57.50-34.50=23
5-3=2
23/2=11.5
x(11.5)
x= number of hours
11.5, amount earned per hour.
