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) ...

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

\[ 25l + 20w \]

where:

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

Now we can substitute the values of \( l \) and \( w \) into the expression:

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

Calculating each term:

  1. \( 25(4) = 100 \)
  2. \( 20(6) = 120 \)

Now, we add these two amounts together:

\[ 100 + 120 = 220 \]

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