Question

PLEASE HELP ME! Sally is paid a fixed amount of money to walk her neighbor's dog every day after school. When she is paid each month, she puts aside $20 to spend and saves the remaining amount. Write an expression that represents the amount Sally will save in 6 months if she earns m dollars each month.

Answer 1

Ok first of all. You cant be in highschool with this question. because this is a 6th grade question. Second that person who gave you that asnwer is wrong because thats not even the answer now I advise you to listen for future refrences.

Explanation:

she is paid $65 and she saves $20 so subtract those numbers then you get $45 so that means she saves $20 and had $45 to spend. that means 20 times 6(months) is... $120 so $120 is your answer. But, to be more professional "Sally has saved $120 in 6 (Months.)

Answer 2

Answer: 6($m - $20)

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that Sally earns m dollars each month to walk her neighbor's dog every day after school and that when she is paid each month, she puts aside $20 to spend and saves the remaining amount. This means that Sally saves:

$m - $20.

The expression that represents the amount Sally will save in 6 months will be so multiplied by the amount saved every month. This will be:

= 6($m - $20)
