Question

Keri earns $48 every 3 hours. Write an equation for the proportional relationship where t is the time in hours and y is the earnings. Enter the correct equation in the box.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 16t

Step-by-step explanation:

$48 / 3 hours = $16/h

The equation of a proportional relation has the form

y = kx

Here, we are using t instead of x, so we have

y = kt

k is the constant of proportionality which is also the slope and the rate of change, which is 16.

y = 16t
