Question

Mike earns $11.50 an hour

Write a linear function for the given in formation.

Answer 1

Answer: y = 11.50x

Explanation:

linear function format:

y = mx + b

since its linear and it starts from 0, b is 0 since there is no addon

y = mx

x is the number of hours, y is the payment incrementing by 11.50 per hour, making 11.50 our gradiant

So y = 11.50x

1 hour = 11.50 * 1

2 hour = 11.50 * 2 and so on
