X = pay and y = hours worked
direct variation equations are of the form:
dependent variable = k(independent variable)
we need to find k, the constant of variation
x = ky
49.40 = 6.5k
7.6 = k
EQUATION: x = 7.6y
PAY for 25 hours: x = 7.6(25) = 190 or $190
Answer:
Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
Point Form:(7,6)
Equation Form: x=7, y=6
Im pretty sure the answer is $45.
