To find the equation that represents how to compute Raquel's wage for each yard, we can start by determining her payment per yard.
Raquel mows 8 yards for a total payment of $75. To find her payment per yard, we can divide her total payment by the number of yards she mows:
\[ \text{Payment per yard} = \frac{75}{8} \]
This shows that for each yard (let's denote the payment per yard as \(x\)), the equation would be:
\[ x = \frac{75}{8} \]
Looking at the provided response options, the closest representation for this equation is:
\[ \frac{75}{8} = x \]
So the correct response would be:
\(75 = 8x\)
This equation indicates that her total pay ($75) is equivalent to the number of yards mowed (8) multiplied by the pay per yard (x).
Thus, the correct answer from the options presented is:
\(75 = 8x\)
