(8) Andre sometimes mows lawns on the weekend to make extra money. Two weeks ago, he mowed a neighbor’s lawn for 12 hours and earned $10. Last week, he mowed his uncle’s lawn for 32 hours and earned $30. This week, he mowed the lawn of a community center for 2 hours and earned $30.Which jobs paid better than others? Explain your reasoning.

Respuesta :

The first two jobs paid better. His neighbor and his uncle both paid $20 per hour. For his neighbor, an hour of lawn mowing pays 10 • 2 or $20. His uncle
paid $30 per } hours, which means $10 every $ hour and $20 every hour. The third job at the community center paid $15 per hour, since 30 +2 = 15.
