so you have 2 weeks and three days till a Halloween party and you need to buy makeup nails and your costume but you only have 10. you figured out that if you have a yard sale and sell everything between 5$ and 15$ you could make between 350$ and 1,050 a week. if you rake for 15$ and rake 5 yards then you'd make 1,050 a week. if I mow the same house that I raked for an extra 15, then id makes an additional 1,050 a week. how much money will I make in total? then with that total after buying the stuff I need how much would I have

If you rake for $15 and rake 5 yards, you would make $1,050 per week. Additionally, if you mow the same house for an extra $15, you would make an additional $1,050 per week. Therefore, your total weekly income would be $1,050 + $1,050 = $2,100.

Now, let's calculate how much money you would make in total considering you have 2 weeks and 3 days until the Halloween party.

First, calculate the total number of days: 2 weeks x 7 days/week = 14 days
Total number of additional days: 14 days + 3 days = 17 days

Multiply the total weekly income by the number of weeks and the additional days:
Total income = $2,100/week x (2 weeks + 17 days/7 days per week)

To simplify the calculation, convert 17 days into weeks: 17 days / 7 days per week = 2.43 weeks

Total income = $2,100/week x (2 weeks + 2.43 weeks) = $2,100/week x 4.43 weeks ≈ $9,303.00

Therefore, you would make approximately $9,303.00 in total.

Now, if you have $10 initially, subtract the total amount you need to spend on makeup, nails, and your costume. Let's assume these items cost $100 in total.

Total money left = $9,303.00 - $100.00 = $9,203.00

You would have approximately $9,203.00 left after buying the stuff you need.
i just want to say i actually have to do this so this is not for school
I apologize for any confusion. Let's recalculate the earnings with the correct information.

From the yard sale, you can make between $350 and $1,050 per week. Assuming you have a full two weeks until the Halloween party, the total earnings from the yard sale would be:

Total earnings from yard sale: 2 weeks * (between $350 and $1,050 per week)
= 2 * ($350 - $1,050)
= $700 - $2,100
= -$1,400 to -$300 (negative because the range is negative)

Next, let's calculate the earnings from raking. Raking 5 yards for $15 each yard would give you:

Earnings from raking: 5 yards * $15 per yard
= $75 per week

If you also mow the same yard for an extra $15, you would make an additional $15 per yard per week.

Earnings from raking and mowing: $75 + $15
= $90 per week

Total earnings over the two weeks would be:

Total earnings: (Earnings from the yard sale) + (2 weeks) * (Total earnings from raking and mowing)
= (-$1,400 to -$300) + 2 * $90
= (-$1,400 to -$300) + $180
= -$1,400 to -$120

Based on the calculations, your total earnings after two weeks and three days could range from negative $1,400 to negative $120. If you have $10 initially, please note that you would end up with a negative amount of money. It would be wise to reassess your budget and financial situation to ensure you can cover the costs of makeup, nails, and your costume.
no the first one was right
Apologies for the confusion. Based on the previous calculation:

Total earnings from the yard sale: (2 weeks) * (between $350 and $1,050 per week)
= (2) * ($350 - $1,050)
= $700 - $2,100

Assuming you make $700 from the yard sale, let's continue with the calculations.

Total earnings from raking and mowing: $150 per week

Total earnings: (Earnings from the yard sale) + (2 weeks) * (Total earnings from raking and mowing)
= $700 + (2) * $150
= $700 + $300
= $1,000

After deducting the cost of makeup, nails, and your costume (assuming $100), you would have:

Total money left = $1,000 - $100
= $900

Therefore, after buying the necessary items, you would have approximately $900 left.
