Question

Donna is planning to take a trip to Spain that will cost $2,927. She has already saved $1,852. To earn the rest of the money, Donna will mow lawns for $25 per lawn. Which equation can be used to find x, the number of lawns Donna will need to mow in order to have enough money for her trip?

A) 1,852x + 25 = 2,927
B) 25(x + 1,852) = 2,927
C) x(1,852 + 25) = 2,927
D) 25x + 1,852 = 2,927

Answer 1

The answer is D

Explanation:

So if she is wanting to save up to 2,927$ then that is gonna be your Y-value. So if she has already previously saved 1,852 that is your "ground number" that is gonna be the same, and for the 25$ per lawn, The per makes it your x-value so it comes out to be 25x + 1,852 = 2,927 , Answer D
