Let number of driveways , she shoveled on Sunday = x

And for 4 driveways , Kendra charges = 4*11=44

Therefore,

143 = 44 + 11x

And that's the model for the given situation .

Subtracting 44 from both sides,

143-44 = 11x

99 = 11x

Dividing both sides by 11

x = 9

Therefore she shoveled 9 driveways on Sunday .

Kendra charges $11 to shovel a driveway .

let us say she shoveled x driveways on Sunday.

Money she made on Sunday =11x

Money she got from shoveling 4 driveways on Saturday = 11*4 =$44

total money she made on weekend = $143

11x+44 =143

11x=143-44

11x= 99

x=9

So she shoveled 9 driveways on Sunday
