Question

Jonah and his brother want to earn at least $400 this month, so they rented a lawn mower to mow lawns. They plan to charge $25 per lawn. The monthly rental fee for the lawn mower is $85. At this rate, what is the fewest number of lawns Jonah and his brother would have to cut to make their goal?

Let m represent the number of lawns mowed. In the box, enter the inequality that models the situation.

Answer 1

Explanation:

25 * 16 = 400

400 - 85 = 315

315 + 25 + 25 ´+ 25 + 25 = 415

he would have to cut at least 20 lawns.
