Question

9.) Ezri earns $10 per day plus $25 for every lawn she mows. How many lawns does she need to mow today to earn $135? First, write the equation that fits this model. Let x be the amount of yards she mows. Hurry please

Answer 1

Answer:

5 lawns

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, the equation is 25x + 10 = 135

Ezri makes $25 for every lawn she mows (25x) and has an automatic $10 per day (10). In order to make $135 we take what she makes each day and set it equal to 135.

To solve, we subtract 10 from both sides to create 25x = 125. We then divide 25 from both sides to get x=5. This means that Ezri needs to mow 5 lawns in order to make $135.

I hope this is helpful to you!
