Answer 1

Answer:

'For 8.5 hours of babysitting, Tiva will earn $68'.

'If Tiva babysits for 4 hours, she will earn $32'.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

'Tiva earns $48 for 6 hours'.

1. Since, for 6 hours, she earns $48.

Then, for 8.5 hours, she will earn $\frac{48}{6}\times 8.5$

i.e. She will earn = $\frac{48\times 8.5}{6}$

i.e. She will earn = $\frac{408}{6}$

i.e. She will earn = $68.

So, we have 'For 8.5 hours of babysitting, Tiva will earn $68'.

2. As, for $48, she babysits for 6 hours.

Thus, for $32, she will babysit for $\frac{6}{48}\times 32$

i.e. She will babysit for $\frac{6\times 32}{48}$

i.e. She will babysit for $\frac{192}{48}$

i.e. She will babysit for 4 hours.

So, we get, 'If Tiva babysits for 4 hours, she will earn $32'.
