One worker earns $85 in 2 weeks, and another earns $175 in 4 weeks. Are the pay rates proportional?(1 p

5 answers

To determine if the pay rates are proportional, we can compare the amount of money earned per week for each worker.

The first worker earns $85 in 2 weeks, so the amount earned per week is:

85 / 2 = $42.50 per week

The second worker earns $175 in 4 weeks, so the amount earned per week is:

175 / 4 = $43.75 per week

Since the amount earned per week is different for each worker, the pay rates are not proportional.
