The frosty chalet hired sa’breia and kaylyn for their bradford store. sa’breia is the manager. kaylyn is the cashier. in their first year, sa’breia will be paid $15 per hour, and kaylyn will be paid $7.50 per hour. they have been told that after every year with the company, they will each be given a raise of $2 per hour. is the relationship between sa’breia’s pay and kaylyn’s pay rate proportional?

No

Since the amount added to each is the same (not proportional to the amount they already receive), the difference between the two salaries will remain the same. That is,

... k = s - 7.50

When there is an added value like this, the relationship cannot be expressed as a proportion:

... k = c·s

x= -3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify brackets

4 - x - 1 = 6

step 2: simpilfy

3 - x = 6

step 3: subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 6 - 3

step 4: simpilfy 6 - 3

-x = 3

step 5: multiply both sides by -1

x = -3

no this is a nonlinear negative
