A lifeguard earn $6.6 per hour. The correct equation representing the relationship is a=t
where,
t = Time (in hours)
a = Total earnings (in $)

• A. 6.6
• B. 3.3
• C. 13.2

Answer 1

The correct option is A 6.6

Given:
Time taken is $t$ hours.
Earnings per hour = $\$6.6$

So, the earnings for $t$ hours can be shown as:

Time (hours)	Payment
1	$\$6.6$
2	$\$6.6\times 2=\$13.2$
t	$\$6.6\times t=a$

So, the corrrect equation representing the relationship is : $a=6.6t$
