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 the values of \( l \) and \( w \) into the equation \( 25l + 20w \).

Given:

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

Now substitute these values into the equation:

\[ 25l + 20w = 25(4) + 20(6) \]

Calculating each term:

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

Now, add the two results together:

\[ 100 + 120 = 220 \]

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