Answer 1

Part A: What are the missing numbers in the table? Show your work. (4 points)

Part B: Barbara also works part time at a theme park. The ratio of the number of hours Barbara works at the park to the money she earns in dollars is 1:9. Create a table to show the money earned by Barbara for 5, 6, and 8 hours of work at the theme park. (3 points)

Part C: How many more dollars does Barbara earn working at the theme park for 5 hours than mowing lawns for 5 hours? Show your work. (3 points)

I only need help with Pt C.

Answer 2

Ok, so when you have this it is basically saying for every hour she works, she is getting $9. So substitue in the 5 and multiply the 9 by 5. @nincompoop correct me if i'm wrong
