Question 1133702: The equation S = 15t tells us the salary (S, in dollars) of a worker who works for t hours.

a. What is the unit rate in this situation?

b. Graph the equation S = 15t in the grid. Label the axes. Choose the scaling for the two axes so that the point corresponding for working for 10 hours will fit on the grid.



Thank you!

The equation S+=+15t+tells us the salary (S, in dollars) of a worker who works for t hours.
a. What is the unit rate in this situation?
=>t=1
S+=+15%2A1+
S+=+15
the unit rate in this situation is 15 dollars
b. Graph the equation S+=+15t in the grid. Label the axes. Choose the scaling for the two axes so that the point corresponding for working for 10 hours will fit on the grid.

the point corresponding for working for t=10 hours will be:
S+=+15%2A10
S+=+150
=>the point is (10,150)
