Answer:
y = 5/6x - 5.167
Or
y = 5/6x - 31/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line
y = mx + c
Step 1: find the slope
m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
Given points
( 0 , -7) ( 5 , -1)
x1 = 0
y1 = -7
x2 = 5
y2 = -1
Insert the values into the equation
m = -1 - (-7) / 5 - 0
m = -1 + 7 / 5
m = 6/5
y = 6/5x + c
Step 2: sub any of the two points given into the equation
y = 5/6x + c
( 5 , -1)
x = 5
y = -1
-1 = 5/6(5) + c
-1 = 5*5/6 + c
-1 = 25/6 + c.
c = -1 - 25/6
LCM = 6
c = -6 - 25 / 6
c = -31/6
c = -5.167
Step 3: sub c into the equation
y = 5/6x + c
y = 5/6x - 31/6
Or
y = 5/6x - 5.167
The equation of the line is
y = 5/6x - 5.167
$24 in 6 hours.
6 hours = $24
1 hour would be: $24/6 = $4
8 hours would then be: $4 * 8 = $32.
So he would make $32 in 8 hours.
Hope this explains it.
