Take an example: The salary per hour:
Assume x (variable) is the number of hours worked and assume THAT THE RATE PER HOUR IS $10, then:
If you work x hours at the hourly rate of$10, you will generate an income,
say, y that is equal the number of hours worked by the rate per hour, that is:
y = 10.x. The more hour(x) you work, the more income(y) you get.
Hence we created a relationship between y and x , or in English, between the earning and the number of hours worked.
Moreover y depends on x, if there is no x, there is no y and if x increases, y increases. However x is an INDEPENDENT variable because you can
give to x any number & y will follow
t is the number of hours Lamar worked as a tutor
We know that he worked for 92 hours total, so he worked 92-t hours as a waiter.
So his earnings are: 7t + 8(92-t) = 736 -t dollars
This expression seems logical as if Lamar worked 0 hours as a tutor and 92 as a waiter his earnings would be 8*92 = 736
If he worked as a tutor for 92 hours it would be 7*92= 644
736-92= 644
So our expression seems to be working.

Answer:
I think its C if I’m wrong sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
It would be b. In all, he has $100 to spend since $50+$25+$25=$100. We have x people coming and he has to spend $2.50, $1.50, and $3.00 per person, respectively. The phrase "per person" indicates we must multiply, so we have to multiply each value by "x." To find out how much money he has left, we must subtract. All of this put together is 100-(2.50x+1.50x+3.00x).
Add the like terms and you get 7x. Your final expression would be
100-7x, which is answer choice b.
