Ty wants to know how much he earns each week. which expression represents the total amount Ty earns for p hours pulling weeds, r hours raking leaves, and c hours cutting the grass? 30p+25r+20c How much money does he earn? Ty earns $? this week.
Ty earns $30 per hour pulling weeds, $25 per hour raking leaves, and $20 per hour cutting the grass.
To calculate the total amount Ty earns for p hours pulling weeds, r hours raking leaves, and c hours cutting the grass, we use the expression 30p+25r+20c.
If Ty wants to know how much he earns each week, he would substitute the number of hours he works into the expression. For example, if Ty works 5 hours pulling weeds, 3 hours raking leaves, and 4 hours cutting the grass, the calculation would be 30(5) + 25(3) + 20(4) = 150 + 75 + 80 = $305.
Therefore, Ty earns $305 this week.

My apologies for the confusion. To calculate the total amount Ty earns for p hours pulling weeds, r hours raking leaves, and c hours cutting the grass, you would use the expression $30p + $25r + $20c.
If Ty works 10 hours pulling weeds, 8 hours raking leaves, and 6 hours cutting the grass, the calculation would be:
$30(10) + $25(8) + $20(6) = $300 + $200 + $120 = $620
Therefore, Ty earns $620 this week.
