Question

Reiko works at Kroger store near his house. Every day he earns a flat rate of $10 plus $5 per hour. Write a function rule. How much would Reiko earn if he works 2 days of 5 hours/day?

Answer 1

Reiko makes $10 no matter what, and $5 per hour

let hour = h

let total = r

Equation:

r = 5h + 10

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reiko works 2 days of 5 hours. First solve the first day

r = 5(5) + 10

r = 25 + 10

r = 35

Reiko makes $35 in all in one day.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multiply $35 twice to get the amount for two days.

$35 x 2 = $70

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$70 is the amount Reiko makes

hope this helps

Answer 2

Reilly would earn $75
