1. **State the problem:** Aaron starts with $0 in his bank account and earns $12 per hour babysitting. We want to find how much money he has after 0, 1, 2, and 3 hours. 2. **Write the equation:** The amount of money in the account after $h$ hours is given by the linear equation $$y = 12h$$ where $y$ is the dollars in the account and $h$ is the number of hours. 3. **Calculate for each hour:** - For 0 hours: $$y = 12 \times 0 = 0$$ - For 1 hour: $$y = 12 \times 1 = 12$$ - For 2 hours: $$y = 12 \times 2 = 24$$ - For 3 hours: $$y = 12 \times 3 = 36$$ 4. **Fill in the table:** | Number of hours | Dollars in account | |-----------------|--------------------| | 0 | 0 | | 1 | 12 | | 2 | 24 | | 3 | 36 | **Final answer:** After babysitting for 0, 1, 2, and 3 hours, Aaron will have 0, 12, 24, and 36 dollars in his account respectively.
