Question

Taz mowed 50 lawns last month. He plans to mow more lawns this month. Which equation shows how many lawns Taz will mow in two months? (Use q to represent the total number of lawns Taz will mow, and p to represent the total number of lawns Taz mows this month.)

A. 50 + p = q
B. 50/p = q
C. 50 – p = q
D. 50p = q

Answer 1

the answer is A because 50 plus how many lawns he mows ( we dont know many  many) will equal something unknown..... so we replace them with letters 

Answer 2

The answer is A, 50 +p=q, you already have the number of lawns from the first month so all you need is to at the number of lawns from the second month to get the total, q
