Find the hourly wage given the relationship between hours worked and money earned: per hour.
STEP 1
Assumptions
1. The table represents a linear relationship between hours worked and money earned.
2. The hourly wage is constant for each hour worked.
3. The money earned for each additional hour worked increases by the same amount.
STEP 2
From the table, we observe that for each additional hour worked, the money earned increases by a constant amount. We can calculate the hourly wage by dividing the money earned by the hours worked for any given entry in the table.
STEP 3
Choose any entry from the table to calculate the hourly wage. For simplicity, we can use the first entry where 1 hour of work corresponds to $11.00 earned.
STEP 4
Calculate the hourly wage using the chosen entry.
The hourly wage described by the table is $11.00 per hour.
