Accepted Solution
A:
The first thing you must do for this case is to find by using the provided table, the equation of the line that represents the amount of money earned per bill. For this case, the equation of the line is: y = 8.05x where is the number of hours worked and is the total amount he earns in dollars. Malia's equation on the other hand is y = 8.1x The rate of Malia is greater than bill's rate because she earns more money per hour than Bill. Malia earns 0.05 $ more per hour than Bill answer The rate of Malia is greater than bill's rate
