marissa works as a consultant who earns a weekly salary based upon hours worked. if her total earnings are g for x hours worked in the table below, what is marissas date per hour?
x y
3 60
13 260
16 320
18 360
To find Marissa's rate per hour, we need to calculate the rate at which she earns money for each hour worked. We can do this by dividing her total earnings (g) by the number of hours worked (x).
For the first row where x=3 and y=60:
Rate per hour = Total earnings / Hours worked = 60 / 3 = $20 per hour
For the second row where x=13 and y=260:
Rate per hour = Total earnings / Hours worked = 260 / 13 = $20 per hour
For the third row where x=16 and y=320:
Rate per hour = Total earnings / Hours worked = 320 / 16 = $20 per hour
For the fourth row where x=18 and y=360:
Rate per hour = Total earnings / Hours worked = 360 / 18 = $20 per hour
Therefore, Marissa's rate per hour is $20.
