(a) Write a direct variation equation that relates the amount of Kelly’s paycheck, p, to the number of hours, h, Kelly works.
(b) Use the equation to find the number of hours Kelly works when her paycheck is $246.
(c) Use the equation to find the amount of Kelly’s paycheck when she works 40 hours

a) The direct variation equation that relates the amount of Kelly's paycheck to the number of hours is .

b) She must work 24 hours to receive $ 246.

c) Kelly receives $ 410 for working 40 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) According to the statement, we find that paycheck (), measured in US dollars, is directly proportional to the time (), measured in hours. That is:

(Eq. 1)

Where is the proportionality constant, measured in US dollars per hour.

If we know that and , then the proportionality constant is:

The direct variation equation that relates the amount of Kelly's paycheck to the number of hours is .

b) If we know that , then the number of hours are determined from (Eq. 1):

She must work 24 hours to receive $ 246.

c) If we know that , then paycheck received by Kelly is:

Kelly receives $ 410 for working 40 hours.
