Question

Korey plants trees at a constant rate of 12 trees every 3 hours. What is an equation that relates p, the number of trees that korey plants, and h, the time he spends planting them in hours.

Answer 1

p=4h

Explanation:

Knowing that Korey plants 12 trees every 3 hours we then can figure out how many trees he plants in 1 hour, by dividing the ratio (12) to the rate (3) by doing that we get 4, which is the amount of trees that he would plant in 1 hour. Then the number of tree's that he plants (p) would equal 4 times how many hours he spends planting them.
