Question

Alfred wants to waste less than 175 gallons of water this week. Every day that he waters the lawn, he wastes 59 gallons of water. Every day that he washes his car, he wastes 28 gallons of water.
Write an inequality that represents the number of days Alfred should water the lawn (L), and wash his car (C) to achieve his goal.

Answer 1

L & C represent the number of days Alfred should water the lawn and wash his car respectively.
Each time he waters, there is 59 gallons used, and each time he washes car, 28 gallons used.

59L + 28C = 175 <the aim he set for himself>
59 gallons × L will then be the total amount of water he uses for watering lawn in a week.
28 gallons × C will then be the total amount of water he uses to wash his car every week.

The expression / answer : 59L + 28C = 175

Hope this helps! :)
