Explanation:

Diego works at a vegetable farm and earns $6.00/hour plus $1.25 for every full wagonload of picked vegetables. Write an expression to represent how much Diego earns if he works y hours and fills x wagonloads. Instruction : In the expression, let the term containing y come before the term containing x.

If Diego works six hours and fills 20 wagonloads, how much does he earn?

==================================================================

Let's Start!

So, we know Diego earns $6.00/hour.

We can write that as 6y, where y is the number of hours worked.

We also know that he earns $1.25 for every wagonload of picked vegetable.

We can write that as 1.25x, where x is the number of wagonloads filled.

So, to make our algebraic expression, we will separate the terms by a plus sign.

6y + 1.25x

PART TWO:

"If Diego works 6 hours"

6(6) + 1.25x =

"And Diego fills 20 wagonloads"

6(6) + 1.25(20) =

Simplify.

36 + 25= 61

So, Diego will earn $61
