the amount of money a worker earns is directly proportional to the number of hours worked.at this rate.thag worker makes $104 in an 8 hour shift.weite a direct variation equation that relates the earnings (e) of the worker to the number of hours (n) worked. use the correct lowercase variables given ,and use no spaces
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form e=kn
In this problem we have
e -----> amount of money a worker earns
n -----> number of hours worked
k is the constant of proportionality
k=e/n
Find the value of k
we have
For n=8 hours, e=$104
sibstitute
k=104/8
k=$13 per hour
The linear equation is
