The hourly wage is $20 per hour and working for 5 hours earns $100

Two variables are said to be proportional or have a proportional relationship when they have equivalent ratios. That is they increase or decrease by a factor.

Let y represent the total wage and let x represent the number of hours worked.

A) Since $100 is earned for 5 hours, hence:

Hourly wage = $100/5 hours

Hourly wage = $20 per hour

B) The linear relationship is given by:

y = 20x

C) Working for 5 hours gives:

y = 20(5)

y = $100
