Question

Chakan worked at the warehouse after school. He earned $9.25 per hour stacking boxes. Which equation correctly relates Chakan's total earnings, d, to the number of hours he worked, h?
A
d=9.25hd=9.25hd=9.25h
B
h=9.25dh=9.25dh=9.25d
C
d=9.25hd=\frac{9.25}{h}d=
h
9.25
​

D
h=9.25dh=\frac{9.25}{d}h=
d
9.25
​

Answer 1

To find the correct equation that relates Chakan's total earnings \( d \) to the number of hours he worked \( h \), we need to use the formula for calculating total earnings based on hourly wage.

Chakan earns $9.25 for each hour he works. Therefore, his total earnings \( d \) can be calculated by multiplying his hourly wage by the number of hours worked:

\[
d = 9.25h
\]

This corresponds to option A:

**A) \( d = 9.25h \)**

The other options do not correctly represent the relationship between total earnings and hours worked.
