Item 6 Your friend earns $10.50 per hour. This is 125% of her hourly wage last year. How much did your friend earn per hour last
1 answer:
Answer:
$8.40
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a proportion to find the total amount last year using the information given. A proportion is two equivalent ratios set equal to each other.
We will cross multiply the numerator of one ratio with denominator of the other. And then solve for y.
125(y)=100(10.50)
125y=1050
y=8.40

Points are (0,14.2)(10,12.4)
slope m=
=
General linear equation
y= mx+b --------------(i)
here m is slope and b is intercept
plug the 1st point in equation
14.2= -0.018(0) + b
b=14.2
y= 0.018x + 14.2
replace y with p(t) and x with t
p(t) = -0.018t + 14.2
