    The proper function for nanny pay based on the number of hours worked is:

    f (x) = 5x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since it is recognized that the hourly payment is $5, a function must be used with the use of a letter whose definition is: number of hours worked, which in this case is X.

    The correct operation to use to mention that a fixed price increases as the number of units increases is multiplication, so the function is used:

    f (x) = 5x

    We will proceed to check it as follows: suppose the babysitter worked for 4 hours, logic would tell us that the total payment would be $20, but we will replace this value in the function:

    f (x) = 5 (4) f (x) = 20

    With which it is checked.

    5x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Micheal starts with no money so the only number should be right next to the variable (x) being multiplied.

    every hour (x) he gets payed $5 so 5x
