Answer 1

$91.00

Explanation:

From the above question, we obtained the following information.

James charges:

1 compact car = $7.00

1 mid sized car = $10.00

1 SUV = $15.00

On Saturday, he washed:

a) 3 compact cars

1 compact car = $7.00

3 compact cars = ?

= $7.00 × 3

= $21.00

b) 4 mid-sized cars

1 mid- sized car = $10.00

4 mid-sized cars = ?

= $10.00 × 4

= $40.00

c) 2 SUVs.

1 SUV = $15.00

2 SUVs = ?

= $15.00 × 2

= $30.00

How much money did he earn?

$21.00 + $40.00 + $30.00

= $91.00

Therefore, James earned $91.00
