Ah, direct variation/proportion.
That is simply a linear equation with a y-intercept of 0.
So... let's solve this.
Simply put, a direct variation multiplies the x-value by a constant to get the y-value.
Let's take the point
on this graph and solve for the constant of proportionality:
We easily solve that and get our answer of
. (B)

Answer:
9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equations: x is the amount of hours Amber worked and y is the hours Jake worked
8x + 8y = 120
y = 3 + x
Substitute the second equation into the first
8x + 8(3+x) = 120
Distribute
8x + 24 + 8x = 120
Combine like-terms
16x + 24 = 120
Subtract 24 on both sides
16x = 96
Divide 16 on both sides
x = 6 (hours Amber worked)
Plug in this x-value into on of the two equations. I will use the second
y = 3 + 6
y = 9
