The for the eamings and hours worked for Employee 1 is displayed in tableThe proportional relationship between the earings and hours worked for Employee 2 in the graphWhat is the equation that represents the proportional the and hours worked for 1 and 2

1 answer

To find the proportional relationship between the earnings and hours worked for Employee 2, we can calculate the unit rate by dividing the earnings by the hours worked.

For Employee 1:

Earnings (E1) = $100
Hours worked (H1) = 10

Unit rate for Employee 1: E1/H1 = $100/10 = $10 per hour

For Employee 2:

Earnings (E2) = $200
Hours worked (H2) = 20

Unit rate for Employee 2: E2/H2 = $200/20 = $10 per hour

Since both Employee 1 and Employee 2 have the same unit rate of $10 per hour, the equation that represents the proportional relationship between the earnings and hours worked for Employee 1 and Employee 2 is:

E = 10H

where:
E = Earnings
H = Hours worked
