Answers
GPT 3.5
A situation that models a linear pattern is tracking the number of hours a person works and their weekly salary.
For example, let's consider a scenario where a person's salary is directly proportional to the number of hours they work in a week.
If we assume that the person earns $10 per hour and they work 20 hours in a week, their salary would be $200 (10 * 20).
Similarly, if they work 30 hours in a week, their salary would increase to $300 (10 * 30).
As the number of hours worked increases, the salary also increases proportionally. This relationship between the number of hours worked and the salary forms a linear pattern.
