To compute Raquel's wage for each yard she mows, you can set up a proportion. She earns $75 for mowing 8 yards, so to find out how much she earns per yard (x), you can divide her total pay by the number of yards:
$$ \frac{75}{8} = \frac{x}{1} $$
This means:
$$ x = \frac{75}{8} $$
Thus, the correct response is:
75/8 = x/1 (Option 1)
This equation represents how to compute her wage per yard.
