Hillary’s summer job at the frozen yogurt shop paid her the amounts shown in the table below in her first three days on the job (she got paid the same hourly rate every day).

Divide the Paid amount by the hours worked and you'll get how much money she gained every hour which is 8.50$ And the question is telling you which of the following equations is GREATER than the amount she got paid per hour. So the answer would be P=9.0h

The required equation represents an hourly pay rate that is greater than Hillary's hourly pay rate p = 9.0h. Option D is correct.

Given,

Hillary’s summer job at the frozen yogurt shop paid her the amounts shown in the table below in her first three days on the job (she got paid the same hourly rate every day).
day = 1 2 3
Hours worked(h) = 5 4 6
Amount paid (p) = $42.50 $34 $51

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is the tangent angle made by line with horizontal. i.e. m = tanx where x in degrees.

The slope of the data given,
m = 42.5/5

m = 8.5
the slope shows the hourly rate to get paid.
Required expression is
p = 8.5h

From the option, the slope of equations needs to compare greater the slope greater will the hourly rate.
Slope of equation A = 1/8, B =8, C = 8.5 and D = 9.0
hence, only slope D has a greater value by the existing slope of 8.5

Thus, the required equation that represents an hourly pay rate that is greater than Hillary's hourly pay rate p = 9.0h.
