5. what is the different between arthurs highest earning day and his lowest earning day?

Explanation:

Step1: Read the line - chart for Tuesday

Locate the point for Tuesday on the x - axis and then check the y - axis value. The y - axis value for Tuesday is \(10\).

Step2: Find the day with the highest y - axis value

Look at all the y - axis values for each day. The highest value is \(20\), and the corresponding day is Wednesday.

Step3: Identify days with y - axis value \(15\)

Check each day's y - axis value. The days with a y - axis value of \(15\) are Monday and Thursday.

Step4: Calculate the difference between Wednesday and Thursday earnings

Wednesday's earning (\(y = 20\)) and Thursday's earning (\(y = 15\)). The difference is \(20−15=5\).

Step5: Calculate the difference between the highest and lowest earnings

The highest earning is \(20\) (Wednesday) and the lowest is \(5\) (Friday). The difference is \(20 - 5=15\).

Answer:

1. \(10\)
2. Wednesday
3. Monday and Thursday
4. \(5\)
5. \(15\)
