Solomon has some electronics his parents said he could recycle. Marcus has permission to recycle some small household appliances. They looked online and discovered that the local recycling center offers $0. 60 per pound for the appliances and $1. 50 per pound for the electronics. But there is a $27 hazardous waste fee that has to be paid to recycle electronics, no matter how much you recycle. Write one equation that represents how much Solomon would earn by recycling electronics. Write another equation that represents Marcus earns from recycling appliances. How many pounds would they have to each recycle so that they earned the same amount of money from the recycle center?
