To create a function for Ari's yard service business, we can define it based on his pricing structure. Ari charges a flat rate of $10 plus an additional $15 per hour worked.

The function can be represented as follows:

\[ f(h) = 10 + 15h \]

where \( h \) is the number of hours worked.

Now, let's create a table to determine how much Ari will make for 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3 hours of work:

| Hours Worked (h) | Earnings (f(h)) | |------------------|------------------| | 1 | $10 + 15(1) = $25 | | 1.5 | $10 + 15(1.5) = $32.50 | | 2 | $10 + 15(2) = $40 | | 2.5 | $10 + 15(2.5) = $47.50 | | 3 | $10 + 15(3) = $55 |

Hence the pairs of hours and earnings are:

  • (1, 25)
  • (1.5, 32.5)
  • (2, 40)
  • (2.5, 47.5)
  • (3, 55)

So the correct response would be: left parenthesis 25 comma 1 right parenthesis , left parenthesis 32.5 comma 1.5 right parenthesis , left parenthesis 40 comma 2 right parenthesis , left parenthesis 47.5 comma 2.5 right parenthesis , left parenthesis 55 comma 3 right parenthesis.
