To determine how much Ari will make based on the hours he works, we can create a function that represents his earnings. The function can be expressed as:
\[ E(h) = 10 + 15h \]
where \( E(h) \) is the earnings for \( h \) hours worked, the $10 is the flat rate, and each hour worked adds $15.
Now let's calculate the earnings for the specified hours (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3):
1. For \( h = 1 \):
\[ E(1) = 10 + 15(1) = 10 + 15 = 25 \]
2. For \( h = 1.5 \):
\[ E(1.5) = 10 + 15(1.5) = 10 + 22.5 = 32.5 \]
3. For \( h = 2 \):
\[ E(2) = 10 + 15(2) = 10 + 30 = 40 \]
4. For \( h = 2.5 \):
\[ E(2.5) = 10 + 15(2.5) = 10 + 37.5 = 47.5 \]
5. For \( h = 3 \):
\[ E(3) = 10 + 15(3) = 10 + 45 = 55 \]
Now we can summarize the results in a table:
| Hours Worked (h) | Earnings (E(h)) |
|-------------------|------------------|
| 1 | 25 |
| 1.5 | 32.5 |
| 2 | 40 |
| 2.5 | 47.5 |
| 3 | 55 |
Thus, the correct response matches the first option:
**(1, 25), (1.5, 32.5), (2, 40), (2.5, 47.5), (3, 55)**.
\[ E(h) = 10 + 15h \]
where \( E(h) \) is the earnings for \( h \) hours worked, the $10 is the flat rate, and each hour worked adds $15.
Now let's calculate the earnings for the specified hours (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3):
1. For \( h = 1 \):
\[ E(1) = 10 + 15(1) = 10 + 15 = 25 \]
2. For \( h = 1.5 \):
\[ E(1.5) = 10 + 15(1.5) = 10 + 22.5 = 32.5 \]
3. For \( h = 2 \):
\[ E(2) = 10 + 15(2) = 10 + 30 = 40 \]
4. For \( h = 2.5 \):
\[ E(2.5) = 10 + 15(2.5) = 10 + 37.5 = 47.5 \]
5. For \( h = 3 \):
\[ E(3) = 10 + 15(3) = 10 + 45 = 55 \]
Now we can summarize the results in a table:
| Hours Worked (h) | Earnings (E(h)) |
|-------------------|------------------|
| 1 | 25 |
| 1.5 | 32.5 |
| 2 | 40 |
| 2.5 | 47.5 |
| 3 | 55 |
Thus, the correct response matches the first option:
**(1, 25), (1.5, 32.5), (2, 40), (2.5, 47.5), (3, 55)**.
