Take an example: The salary per hour:
Assume x (variable) is the number of hours worked and assume THAT THE RATE PER HOUR IS $10, then:
If you work x hours at the hourly rate of$10, you will generate an income,
say, y that is equal the number of hours worked by the rate per hour, that is:
y = 10.x. The more hour(x) you work, the more income(y) you get.
Hence we created a relationship between y and x , or in English, between the earning and the number of hours worked.
Moreover y depends on x, if there is no x, there is no y and if x increases, y increases. However x is an INDEPENDENT variable because you can
give to x any number & y will follow
3:6 3,6,9 6,12,18,24
9:24. ~~ ~~
Yes it is equivalent because if you divide 9:24 with 3 it will equal 3:6 and if you keep adding with 3:6 buy it's self it will eventually aqualung 9:24
It would be C since a scale factor of 2 makes the original A coordinate of (3,3) times 2 therefore the new coordinates being (6,6)
17/2 = 8.5 hours per week
8.5 x 5 = 42.5 hours in 5 weeks
