To find how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs, we can use the formula:

\[ E = 25l + 20w \]

where \( E \) is the total earnings, \( l \) is the number of lawn-mowing jobs, and \( w \) is the number of pulling-weeds jobs.

Given:

  • \( l = 4 \)
  • \( w = 6 \)

We can substitute these values into the formula:

\[ E = 25(4) + 20(6) \]

Now we calculate each part:

\[ E = 100 + 120 \]

So,

\[ E = 220 \]

Thus, Jaden will earn $220 for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs.
