Answer:
Option D The pattern is multiplicative because the earnings are 12 times the number of hours worked in each pair of values is correct option.
Step-by-step explanation:
At x-axis we have number of hours worked and y-axis represents earnings in dollars.
We can make the table:
Number of hours worked (x) earnings in dollars (y)
1 12
2 24
3 36
4 48
5 60
Now, we need to find the pattern.
If we add 1+ 11 we get 12, but if we add 2+ 11 we get 13 and not 24 so, the pattern is not additive.
Now, if we multiply 1 by 12 (1 x 12) we get 12,
then 2 x 12 = 24
3 x 12 = 36
4 x 12 = 48
and 5 x 12 = 60
The same number if multiplied with x-axis we get y-axis.
So, the pattern is multiplicative. and we are multiplying 12 with the number of hours worked, so the correct option is option D.
Option D The pattern is multiplicative because the earnings are 12 times the number of hours worked in each pair of values is correct option.
