Ryan is going to earn a little money this summer by mowing lawns in his neighborhood. he plans to charge 5$ per yard and has his schedule worked out for the first two week of summer. in the first week he will mow 7 lawns and he has planned to mow 11 lawns in the second week.
@linda18, may I know why you can't help her?
** how much will ryan earn in the first week? ** How much will he earn in the second week? ** how much will he earn both weeks?
she wants someone else to explain it and that was my sister i guess i didn't explain that well!
This is a case where you can just make a chart of the cost of each mowing.
no she not yelling at me lol. can u show by the chart please???
Yards doesn't factor in this case. It's $5 per yard, as in, each house has its own yard.
There's two definitions for yard. In this case, yard is just an space of grass surrounding a house.
Wow, you guys are making this so complicated.
lol, I'm not. @nincompoop is the one trying to confuse people.
yeah its a little hard
to understand
1st yard = $5 2nd yard = $5 3rd yard = $5 ... keep going until you get to 7 for the first week.
it's not hard to understand lol, he's mowing 7 lawns first week and he gets $5 per lawn first week = $5*7 second week = $5*11
I was trying to show the chart method
so just keep going until 7th yard and then thats my answer
that's your answer for the first week for the second week you keep going until 11th yard
You can either multiply $5 times each lawn mowed or you can add $5 for each lawn mowed. The question should have stated "lawn" rather than yard.
no i got it yeah like the 5*7=35 first yARD , 5*11=55 and then add 35+55
55 is 2 yard
so i would just show my work like that
yeah i know i just couldn't find it on my keyborde for a second lol
i need help with one more can anyone help me??
thank you for explaining it for me =)
joey is going to earn some money this spring by cleaning up his neighbor's gardens. he plans to clean up 20 gardens and charge $3 for each garden. his brother trevor is going to help him. joey is going to pay trevor $ 38 for all of his help.
I told you guys to use "lawn" instead of "yard" to avoid confusion.
