Question

Use the equation $25x + $2 + $3 to describe each term of the equation. Also, be sure to identify the variable. Correctly identifying and describing each of the relevant quantities.
Explaining why each term is a quantity measured in dollars. HINT: Randi charges $25 an hour to shovel and salt. She pays $3 for salt. It costs her $2 to replace a shovel. She earned $60.00 on her last job

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

60 = 25x - 2 - 3

The 60 is the total amount she got from doing the job.

3 + 2 = 5, and $5 is subtracted from her buying salt and replacing a shovel.

Randi charges $25 per x hours.

x = amount of hours she takes.

The equation simplified would be:

60 = 25x - 2 - 3

60 = 25x (- 2 - 3)

60 = 25x - 5

Each term is measured in $, for we are dealing with economics, for we see that Randi is trying to buy equipment to help her earn money, which deals with the flow of cash.
