EXPLANATION :

The initial fee is $625 and an additional $45 for every lawn mowing service thereafter.

Let x = the number of lawn mowing service

and y = the total amount paid

We can express this as an equation with :


y=625+45x

If Michael paid a total of $895, substitute y = 895 then solve for the value of x :


\begin{gathered} 895=625+45x \\ 895-625=45x \\ 270=4x \\ 4x=270 \\ x=(270)/(4)=6 \end{gathered}

ANSWER :

The answer is 6
