Answer 1

Answer:

Option B.(1,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of hours worked

y ---->the amount earned in dollars

we know that

To find out the unit rate divide the total amount earned by the total hours worked

so

$\frac{\ 48}{6}=\ 8\ per\ hour$

That means

For x=1 hour, y=$8

therefore

The point that represent the unit rate is (1,8)
