Luis makes $23.10 per hour at his job for the first 40 hours he works each week. if he works more than 40 hours, then luis makes $34.65 per hour. if luis works 46 hours in one week, how much does he earn?
a. $1,062.60 b. $1,097.25 c. $1,131.90 d. $1,593.90

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation

graph of this function as shown below:

lockers 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 40, and 49 are open
