For each hour he babysits, anderson earns $1 more than half of carey’s hourly rate. anderson earns $6 per hour. which equation can be used to solve for carey’s hourly rate, c?

Our required equation would be

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount that Anderson earns per hour = $6

According to question, Anderson earns $1 more than half of Carey's hourly rate.

Let the hourly rate of Carey be 'c'.

So, it becomes,

And the value of c would be

Hence, our required equation would be

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
