Question

Jaden has a part-time job working for a landscaping company. He earns $25 for each lawn-mowing job, l
, and $20 for each pulling-weeds job, w
. This can be modeled by 25l+20w
. Evaluate for l=4
and w=6
to find how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs.(1 point)

Answer 1

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

\[
25l + 20w
\]

where \( l = 4 \) (number of lawn-mowing jobs) and \( w = 6 \) (number of pulling-weeds jobs).

Now we can substitute the values into the formula:

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

Calculating each term:

\[
25 \times 4 = 100
\]

\[
20 \times 6 = 120
\]

Now, adding these two results together:

\[
100 + 120 = 220
\]

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