Question

How much does Manuela earn for each hour of tutoring? Explain

Answer 1

Manuela earns $10 for each hour of tutoring.

Explanation:

We can get our answer by looking at an ordered pair in the graph below.

(2,20)

The x-value 2 means 2 hours worked and the y-value 20 means $20 earned. We can find out how much she earned in 1 hour by dividing,

$20 / 2 hours = $10

Answer 2

$10 an hour.

Explanation:

The x-axis is the hour and the y-axis is the money. When the line is above the 1 hour line, it is on the $10 line.
