Jarred made 24 dollars babysitting his cousins Saturday night how much money did Jardel make babysitting Friday night how much
Money did jarrel make babysitting on Friday night? Write and solve an equation to find the answer
Let's represent the amount of money Jarrel made babysitting on Friday night as x dollars.
We know that Jarred made 24 dollars babysitting on Saturday night. Therefore, the total amount Jarred made over both nights is 24 + x dollars.
Since Jarred made a total of 24 dollars babysitting both nights, we can write the equation:
24 + x = total amount earned
We are trying to find the value of x, so we can solve for x by subtracting 24 from both sides of the equation:
x = total amount earned - 24
Since Jarred made 24 dollars babysitting his cousins on Saturday night, we can substitute this value back into the equation:
x = total amount earned - 24
x = 24 - 24
x = 0
Therefore, Jarrel made 0 dollars babysitting on Friday night.
Wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct that:
Let's represent the amount of money Jarrel made babysitting on Friday night as x dollars.
We know that Jarred made 24 dollars babysitting on Saturday night. Therefore, the total amount Jarred made over both nights is 24 + x dollars.
Since the total amount Jarrel made over both nights is the same as what Jarred made on Saturday (24 dollars), we can write the equation:
24 + x = 24
Now, we can solve for x by subtracting 24 from both sides of the equation:
x = 24 - 24
x = 0
Therefore, Jarrel made 0 dollars babysitting on Friday night.
THATS WRONG FIVE ME A NEW ANSWER
Apologies for the mistake in my previous responses. Let's correct that.
Let's represent the amount of money Jarrel made babysitting on Friday night as x dollars.
Given that Jarred made 24 dollars babysitting his cousins on Saturday night, we can write the equation:
x + 24 = total amount earned
The total amount Jarred made over both nights is 24 dollars, so we can substitute this information into the equation:
x + 24 = 24
Now, we can solve for x:
x = 24 - 24
x = 0
Therefore, Jarrel made 0 dollars babysitting on Friday night.
