Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: 20 shows $20 which Cory earns by mowing one lawn. 9 shows $9 which he earns by trimming one hedge. x shows the number of lawns. y shows the number of hedges. Part B: There are two terms in this expression. 20x which shows the total earning of Cory by mowing lawns. 9y which shows his earning by trimming hedges. It can be judged by the description of rates explained in part A. Part C: From explanation given in Part C, we can easily see that the expression 9y is used for the total earned from trimming hedges.
To solve this answer, you are trying to find 55% of 600, because that is the number of people who chose plastic bag.
55% can be re-written as 55/100 OR 0.55 since percentages are always out of 100.
So, we do 0.55*600, which gives us 330. 330 people carry plastic bags.
