Question

Jared earns extra money by dog walking. He charges $6.25 to walk a dog once a day 5 days a week and $8.75 to walk a dog once a day 7 days a week. Which equation represents this relationship?

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation representing the relationship is;

Amount charged to work a dog once a day = $1.25 * Number of days

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the equation representing the relationship between the charges and the number of days

Firstly, he charges $6.25 to walk a dog a day for 5 days, the amount charged per day will be $6.25/5 = $1.25

For the 7 days, amount charged = 8.75/7 = $1.25

This means he charges an amount of $1.25 to walk a dog once a day

The equation that represents the relationship is thus;

Amount charged = $1.25 * Number of days
