Melinda and Marcus each have a job. Melinda earns $12 an hour. She also receives a $75 weekly bonus. 

Melinda made a table to show how much she earns in a given week.

Hours	0	5	10	15	20	25	30	35	40
Weekly Earnings	75	135	195	255	315	375	435	495	555
Marcus earns $15 an hour.

Marcus wrote an equation to determine how much he earns for a given number of hours in a given week.

y=15xy=15x
