HELP ANYONE??
Alex has a summer job doing lawn maintenance. he is paid $8 per hour for mowing and an extra $10 for removing weeds. Create and evaluate an algebraic expression to calculate how much Alex earns if it takes him 4 hours to mow a lawn and he removes the weeds.

Answer 1

8x + 10 = (?)

step 1  8x + 10 x 4 = 8x + 40

step 2 8x + 40 = 8( x + 5)
