Bobby charges $10. per lawn he mows, and an additional $5. per hour.
a) Find the independent and the dependent variables.
b) Write a linear function that models the wage of Bobby per lawn.
c) If Bobby work for 3.5 hours on a lawn, how much does he earn?
a) independent = hours
dependent = wages
b ) W = 10 + 5h
c)27.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The independent variable is the one that you change which is the number of hours that it takes
The dependent variable is the variable that changes based on the independent variable. The wages depends on the hour worked so the wages are the independent variable
The wages equal the fixed cost plus the hourly rate times the number of hours where W is the wages and h is the number of hours
W = 10 + 5h
W = 10 + 5( 3.5)
= 10 + 17.5
= 27.5
a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)
b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)
have a good day!
