Question

, 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

Answer 1

To find out how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs, we can substitute \( l = 4 \) and \( w = 6 \) into the equation \( 25l + 20w \).

1. Substitute the values into the equation: \[ 25l + 20w = 25(4) + 20(6) \]

2. Calculate \( 25(4) \): \[ 25(4) = 100 \]

3. Calculate \( 20(6) \): \[ 20(6) = 120 \]

4. Add the two results together: \[ 100 + 120 = 220 \]

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