Question

Moche started a summer business of mowing lawns. However, before he could mow lawns, he needed to purchase supplies (a lawnmower among other needs). Moche spent $395 gathering necessary materials. He makes on average $60 per lawn, mowed. Write an equation to show Moche his earnings for l lawns mowed.

Answer 1

Answer:

$E= 60 l - 395$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E be the total earnings .

Cost of mowing 1 lawn = $60

Since he mowed l lawns

So, cost of mowing l lawns =$60l$

So, he earned $60l$

Now we are also given that he spent $395 gathering necessary materials.

So, the total earnings for l lawns mowed = $60l-395$

So, required expression : $E= 60 l - 395$

Hence an equation to show Moche his earnings for l lawns mowed is :

$E= 60 l - 395$

Answer 2

Gone money -$395

money per lawn $60
 
let x be lawn and f()= earnings


f(x)= 60x-396
