Answer:

C) y is equal to 10.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

$31.50 is charged for 3  hours so, for 1 hour we need to divide 31.50 by 3, which results in 10.50. So 1 hour of babysitting is $10.50

this is because x is equal to the number of hours they babysit. we do not know the actual so it is replaced with x

and y is equal to the sum of 10.5x because we multiply the number of hours worked, and the amount per hour.
