The table is an illustration of a proportional relationship. and can be modeled by the function rule y = 12x

The entries of the table is given as:

Hours    Earnings

4               48

6               72

10              120

20             240

Start by calculating the rate (m) of the function

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{72 - 48}{6-4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{24}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 12[/tex]

The equation of the table is then calculated as:

[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = 12(x - 4) + 48[/tex]

[tex]y = 12x - 48 + 48[/tex]

[tex]y = 12x[/tex]

[tex]y = 12x[/tex] means that, the following statements are true:

  • The rate of change for the data is $12 per hour. $12 is also the constant of proportionality
  • If you graph the data, it would pass through the origin (0,0)
  • The data represent a direct variation and can be modeled by the function rule y = 12x
