Derek owns a landscape business. He charges a fixed fee of $30 plus $1 per 1,000 square feet of lawn mowed. Derek's earnings (in dollars) in the past five weeks are {204, 344, 450, 482, 504}. To find the corresponding square footage of lawn mowed, construct a function that models the total area of lawn that Derek mows based on his earnings.

The answer is 64, if I answered it correctly, I have no promises. So i added how much money he earned in the past five weeks. That equaled 1,984. I then divided 1,984 by 31 and got 64. I do not think i read the question correctly but if i did, I hope this helps. I think i missed the last step though. Sorry.
