Jaden has a part-time job working for a landscaping company. He earns $25 for each lawn-mowing job, l , and $20 for each pulling-weeds job, w . This can be modeled by 25l+20w . Evaluate for l=4 and w=6 to find how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs. (1 point)
To find how much money Jaden will earn for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs, substitute l = 4 and w = 6 into the expression 25l + 20w:
25(4) + 20(6)
= 100 + 120
= 220
Therefore, Jaden will earn $220 for 4 lawn-mowing jobs and 6 pulling-weeds jobs.
The formula for finding the surface area of a cube is 6s2 , where s is the length of each side of the square. Evaluate for s=10 to find the number of square centimeters ( cm2 ) for the surface area of a cube with a side length of 10 cm. (1 point)
To find the surface area of a cube with a side length of 10 cm, substitute s = 10 into the formula 6s^2:
6(10)^2
= 6(100)
= 600
Therefore, the surface area of a cube with a side length of 10 cm is 600 cm^2.
