Question 928266: Kendrick gets paid $6.50 for raking leaves and $15 for mowing each lawn. He made a total of $328.50 for doing both. He mowed twice as many lawns as he did rake leaves. How many times did he rake leaves. Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = number of rakings
y = number of mowings
---
6.50x + 15y = 328.50
y = 2x
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
6.50x + 15y = 328.50
2x - y = 0
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
