Question

Manuel makes 8 dollars for each hour of work. Write an equation to represent his total pay p after working h hours.

p and h are variables

Answer 1

p=8h

Explanation:

because he gets paid 8 dollars ever hour he works so if you multiple the hours he works to 8 dollars you get his total pay

Answer 2

p = 8h

A very short answer, I know, but reading this out loud reads "Manuel's pay is equal to 8 dollars an hour."
