Latisha earns $5 an hour painting her neighbor's fence.

Part A: Create two variables and determine which is dependent and which is independent for this situation. (4 points)

Part B: List three ordered pairs to show the values of the two variables. (3 points)

Part C: Write an equation to represent the relationship between the two variables. (3 points)

Answer 1

I have a and c done.

Answer 2

What is your equation for A? So I can help you with B

Answer 3

my equation for a is p=5h

Answer 4

@pflorido are you still helping?

Answer 5

You still working on this one?

Answer 6

Yes i need help on B

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

For A) Earned = 5*(Hours)

Answer 9

the independent variable is hours, it determines how much is earned, earned is 'dependent' on hours

Answer 10

Pay is the dependent and Hours is the independent.

p=5h

Answer 11

i have that already ^

Answer 12

oh i didnt see the dependent/indep

Answer 13

sorry lol i forgot to post it

Answer 14

Part B, they just want 3 data points from the equation...

p = 5h

The points are (h , p) pick any values for h you want, 1,2,3....

Answer 15

Ok

Answer 16

pick one number or 123 is all i need?

Answer 17

any number of hours, and calclulate the earned amount

Answer 18

what do you mean?

Answer 19

They want 3 points on the graph of y = 5*x
Chose any 3 values of X, and determine the corresponding y's..

p = 5*h

Let h = 1, then p = 5*1 = 5
Point - (h , p) = (1 , 5)

Answer 20

Let h = 2, then
p = 5 * 2 = 10

point (h , p) = (2 , 10)

Answer 21

need one more point

Answer 22

H=3 p=5*3=15
point (h,p) = (3,15)

Answer 23

right, the last part we did in part A, the equation p = 5h

Answer 24

so thats all for part b?
