Question

Josiah and Tillery have new jobs at Yum Yum ice cream polar. Josiah is Tillery's manager. In their first year. Josiah will be paid $14 per hour, and Tillery will be paid $7 per hour. They have been told that after every year with the company, they will each be given a raise of $2 per hour. Is this relationship between Josiah's pay and Tillery's pay rate proportional?

Answer 1

Answer:

Relationship between Josiah's pay and Tillery's pay  is not proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount paid to Josiah per hour = $14

Amount paid to Tillery per hour = $7

Ratio of amount paid to Josiah to amount paid to Tillary = $14:7=2:1$

In the next year,

Amount paid to Josiah per hour = 14 + 2 = $16

Amount paid to Tillery per hour = 7 + 2 = $9

Ratio of amount paid to Josiah to amount paid to Tillary = $16:9$

As $2:1\neq 16:9$,  relationship between Josiah's pay and Tillery's pay  is not proportional
