Answer 1

Answer:

I'll just answer all three for you. Part A: y=5x+0 Part B: $32.50. Part C: 9 hours and 30 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: The $5 is the independent variable, because it adds every hour. So the equation is y=5x+0, because hse starts with no money at the begginning.

Part B: 5x6.5=32.50.

Part C: 5x9.5=47.50
