Question

This graph shows how much Anthony earns babysitting, compared with the number of hours he works. Select the correct statement about the graph.

Answer 1

It’s B , for each hour he works his earning go up by $8.

Answer 2

Option B.

Explanation:

In the given graph y axis shows the earning of Anthony and x axis represents the time he worked.

Slope of the line given in the graph will represent the per hour earning.

Since straight line passes through two points origin (0, 0) and (6, 48)

we know slope =
`(y-y')/(x-x')`

Slope =
`(48-0)/(6-0)=(48)/(6)`

slope = 8

Therefore slope is telling for every hour he works Anthony's earnings goes up by $8.

Option B is the correct option.
