Question #2
Erica will have to work for 14 hours in order to buy her sneakers.
How to solve:
You subtract $31 from $150 which equals to $119
You multiply 8.50 (which is the amount of money she gets paid every hour) by the answers they gave you.
8.50 multiplied by 14 is 199
Erica had to work 14 hours to make $199
Your answer is D) 14
Provided options are not clear.
But we know that 36 = 6² = (2·3)² = 2²·3²
You are given two points on a line, and told that the function is "direct variation." You can save a lot of time by recognizing that the y-intercept here is zero (0). Thus, the line passes through the origin.
A line through (2,14) and (4,38) is NOT direct variation, because the line connecting those two points does NOT pass through the origin, and thus has a vertical intercept.
