Question

A recycling station pays $0.25 for each large glass bottle, $0.02 for each aluminum can, and $30 for each ton of newspaper. Neal brought some bottles, aluminum cans, and 150 pounds of newspaper to the recycling center. Write an expression that tells how much money he earned. (Let g be the number of bottles and c be the number of cans he delivered to the center.)

Answer 1

Money = 0.25g + 0.02c + 30 (150/2000)
money = 0.25g + 0.02c + 2.25
