One worker earns $85 in two weeks and another earned $175 in four weeks are the pay rates proportional

Answer 1

To determine if the pay rates are proportional, we need to compare the amount earned per week for each worker.

Worker A earns $85 in two weeks, which means they earn $85/2 = $42.50 per week.

Worker B earns $175 in four weeks, which means they earn $175/4 = $43.75 per week.

The pay rates are not proportional since the two workers earn different amounts per week.
