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 1 = 4 and w = 6 to find how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs.

Answer 1

To calculate how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs, we can substitute the values into the equation:

$$25l+20w$$

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

Now substituting the values:

$$25(4)+20(6)$$

Calculating the individual terms:

$$25(4)=100$$ $$20(6)=120$$

Now adding these together:

$$100+120=220$$

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