alfonso gets paid $15 for each lawn he mows. he has already mowed 4 lawns this week but wants to earn a total of $150. he will need to mow more lawns to reach his goal.
A.) write an equation to represent the total amount he earns for mowing lawns to reach his goal.
-----
150 = 4*15 + 15x
-------------
B.) how many lawns will he need to mow to get his goal?
150 = 60 + 15x
15x = 90
x = 6 (# of lawns he needs to mow)
