Answer: $22.70

Explanation:

e=22.7h

Peyton makes , dollar sign, 22, point, 7, 0, per hour.

Peyton makes $22.70 per hour.

Answer 2

The amount of money Lamonte makes is $22.5 per hour

Explanation:

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Equations are classified based on degree (value of highest exponents) as linear, quadratic, cubic and so on. Variables can be dependent or independent. Dependent variables depend on other variable while an independent variable do not depend.

Let e represent the total earnings in dollars if Lamonte works for h hours. Hence:

e = 22.5h

e/h = $22.5 per hour
