Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
using the cosine ratio to find p
cos 45° = 
= 
cross- multiplying gives
p × cos45° = 6 → [ cos 45° = 
]
p × = 6
multiply both sides by 
⇒ p = 6 ( third option on list )
The correct answer is: [C]: " p = 6.25 h " .

Explanation:
______________________________________________________
It is clear that "pay" is a function of "hours worked" ;
So, we can eliminate: "Choice [B]: " h = <span>6.25p" .
______________________________________________________
Try, Choice [A]: " </span>p = h + 12.5 " ; and 14.50 ≠ 12.50 ; (12.50 is the amount shown in the table. So, we can already eliminate "Choice [A]".
<span>_____________________________________________
Now that we have eliminated choices [A] and [B];
we are left with choices: [C] and [D]:
_____________________________________________
Consider choice [C]: " </span><span>p = 6.25h " ;
</span> when "h = 2" ; does: "p = 12.5" (as shown on table)?? ;
i.e. " 12.5 =? 6.25 * (2) ?? Yes! This choice is a POSSIBILITY.
_____________________________________________
Consider choice [D]: " p = 12.5h" .
When "h = 2, does "p = 12.5" (as shown on table)? No!
→ We can see from this very answer choice
(the equation itself) that when "h = 2" ;
the value of "p" is DOUBLE [that of "12.5"].

The correct answer is: Answer choice: [C]: " <span>p = 6.25 h " .

24q-8=11 (use distributive property)
24q= 11+8
24q = 20
q= 20/24
q= 0.8
