Question

Please see the last part of the question, my daughter needs help to understand how to answer it

Answer 1

Given the linear equation:

`y=6x`

Where:

x = Independent variable

y = Dependent variable

Let:

y = Total amount of money

x = Number of hours

A possible situation is a person who works a determined number of hours. The person will earn a determined amount of money per hour. For example a person who works at a supermarket earns $6 dollars per hour:

y = 6x

If the person works 4 hours then the total amount of money is:

y = 6(4) = $24
