Answer 6

To find the equation that represents the proportional relationship between earnings and hours worked for both Employee 1 and Employee 2, we need to identify the relationship (i.e., the slope) from the provided data.

### Employee 2:
The coordinates from the graph for Employee 2 are:
- \((0, 0)\)
- \((1, 15)\)
- \((3, 45)\)
- \((5, 75)\)

From these points, we can observe that the earnings increase consistently. To determine the slope, we can use the point \((1, 15)\):
- The earnings per hour can be calculated as follows:

\[
\text{Earnings per hour} = \frac{\text{Earnings}}{\text{Hours}} = \frac{15}{1} = 15
\]

This indicates that Employee 2 earns $15 per hour. The equation for Employee 2 can be written as:

\[
y = 15x
\]
(where \(y\) is earnings and \(x\) is hours worked).

### Employee 1:
Since the relationship is proportional, we can represent it as:

\[
y = kx
\]

Where \(k\) is the constant of proportionality.

If you provide earnings information for Employee 1 (as contained in the table you mentioned), we can determine the value of \(k\) for Employee 1 based on that data.

Assuming you have provided values for Employee 1 that are directly proportional (for example, if they earn $10 per hour), the equation might be:

\[
y = 10x
\]
(if \(k = 10\)).

Putting this all together, without specific values for Employee 1, we will have:

- **The equation for Employee 1 is**: \(y = kx\) (where \(k\) is based on Employee 1's specific earnings).
- **The equation for Employee 2 is**: \(y = 15x\).

If you provide the details for Employee 1's earnings, I can help to refine that equation further!

Answer 7

Here are the answers to your questions based on the data provided:

1. **Which Biker can cycle faster? How fast were they traveling?**
- **Biker A can cycle faster, 15 mph.**
- **Explanation**:
- Biker A's performance shows that after 1 hour, they traveled 15 miles, meaning they travel at 15 miles per hour (mph).
- Biker B's data shows that after 1 hour, they traveled 12 miles, which is 12 mph. Therefore, Biker A is faster.

2. **Which type of apple is cheaper per pound, and what is the cost per pound?**
- **McIntosh apples are cheaper at $1.85 per pound.**
- **Explanation**:
- For Granny Smith apples, using the plotted points:
- At 2 lbs: $3.50 → $3.50/2 = $1.75 per lb.
- At 3 lbs: $5.25 → $5.25/3 = $1.75 per lb.
- At 4 lbs: $7.00 → $7.00/4 = $1.75 per lb.
- For McIntosh apples:
- At 2 lbs: $3.70 → $3.70/2 = $1.85 per lb.
- At 3 lbs: $5.55 → $5.55/3 = $1.85 per lb.
- At 4 lbs: $7.40 → $7.40/4 = $1.85 per lb.
- Therefore, Granny Smith apples are cheaper at $1.75, while McIntosh apples are $1.85.

3. **Find the cookie that yields the most cookies from one cup of sugar.**
- **Cookie A makes more cookies than Cookie B from one cup of sugar. Cookie A makes 80 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.**
- **Explanation**:
- For Cookie A:
- 2 cups yield 80 cookies, so 1 cup yields \( 80/2 = 40 \) cookies.
- From the graph, Cookie B makes 36 cookies from 1 cup of sugar.
- Therefore, Cookie A yields more cookies (40) compared to Cookie B (36).

4. **Which student reads faster and by how much?**
- **Student 1 reads faster than Student 2 by 10 pages per hour.**
- **Explanation**:
- For Student 1, the reading rate is 10 pages per hour (from the graph).
- For Student 2:
- At 3 hours, they read 45 pages, which gives a reading rate of \( 45/3 = 15 \) pages per hour.
- Therefore, Student 2 reads faster (15) than Student 1 (10) by 5 pages per hour.

5. **Which store has the better buy for footballs, and what is the cost for a football at Store 1 and Store 2?**
- **Store 2 has the better buy on footballs. Store 1’s football costs $9, and Store 2’s football costs $12.**
- **Explanation:**
- Store 1:
- At 1 football: $9, at 2 footballs: $18, which means each football costs $9 (based on the graph).
- Store 2 from the graph shows it costs $12 for each football.
- Therefore, Store 1 has the cheaper price per football.
