Answer:
Tamara's example is in fact an example that represents a linear functional relationship.
- This is because the cost of baby-sitting is linearly related to the amount of hours the nany spend with the child: the more hours the nany spends with the child, the higher the cost of baby-sitting, and this relation is constant: for every extra hour the cost increases at a constant rate of $6.5.
- If we want to represent the total cost of baby-sitting in a graph, taking the variable "y" as the total cost of baby-sitting and the variable "x" as the amount of hours the nany remains with the baby, y=5+6.5x (see the graph attached).
- The relation is linear because the cost increases proportionally with the amount of hours ($6.5 per hour).
- See table attached, were you can see the increses in total cost of baby sitting (y) when the amount of hours (x) increases.
Hi there!
I can see why you've posted a question like this here - For adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing fractions by whole numbers can be difficult to come out with a precise answer, so let me make it look easier for you!
So, the steps are:
Smush the 2 (whole number) and the 2 (the numerator of the fraction) together on top so its (2)(2) over 6. I can show you what I mean, if you'd like.
This is what it should look like.
Now, what is 2 times 2? You can use a calculator for this part.
Now, we can get to the last part, my favorite one!
Simplify down to
.
How did we do it? EASY!
See what number does evenly into both numerators and denominators. In this case, 2 goes into 4 twice, and 2 goes into 6 three times, so we're left with our beautiful answer .
That wasn't so bad, was it? You can use this as a guide for figuring out math problems like these, in case you're stuck again. But just in case, message me if you need anymore help! :D
