Answer:
61 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
See the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or
To find out the constant of proportionality k , divide the variable y (total earned) by the variable x (number of hours)
<em>Kevin's wage</em>
Take any point from the table
I take the point (2,16.50)
The equation of the proportional relationship is equal to
substitute the value of k
For y=$500.00
substitute the value of y in the equation and solve for x
Divide by 8.25 both sides
