    Proportional: Mike, a plumber charges $5 per hour for his service.

    Non-proportional: Mike charges a initial cost of $10 plus $3 for each hours of service.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let us assume that Mike, a plumber charges $5 per hour for his service.

    So, the number of hours (h) of service and the total charge (C) are proportional, which is

    C (h) = 5h ... (1)

    If the condition changes like, Mike charges an initial cost of $10 plus $3 for each hour of service.

    Here, the equation that models the situation is

    C (h) = 10 + 3h ... (2)

    Now, relation (1) is non-proportional. (Answer)
