Question

For each situation, identify the independent and dependent variables. Write a function in function notation. Then use the function to solve the problem.


Almira earns $50 an hour. How much does she earn in 6 hours?

Answer 1

f(x) = 50x

independent variable = x
dependent variable = f(x)

f(x) = 50x......find f(6)
f(6) = 50(6)
f(6) = 300
