Raquel gets paid $75 per week to mow 8 yards. Which equation would represent how to compute her wages for each yard?

Answer 1

Let x be the number of yards mowed.
Since Raquel gets paid $75 per week to mow 8 yards, she gets paid $75/8 per yard mowed.

Therefore, the equation that represents how to compute her wages for each yard is W = 75/8 * x, where W represents her wages for each yard.
