Question

Sally invests $300 in a lawn mowing business to buy a mower and other supplies. She charges $20 for each lawn she mows. Write an equation to show the amount of money she has earned (y), for any number of lawns mowed (x).

Answer 1

300- (20x)= y

Since she invested $300, you had to subtract the total amount of cash she made mowing lawns.

Hope this helped!
