PLEASE HELP!!

Jimmy cuts grass for Lawns and Hedges, Inc. The amount of money Jimmy earns on any given day that he goes in to work can be modeled by the function f(x) below, where x represents the number of lawns he cut and f(x) represents his earnings for the day.

f(x) = 25 + 5x

Based on the structure of the function, which of the following best characterizes the manner in which Jimmy is paid?



Select one:
A. Jimmy earns $5 for coming in to work and an additional $25 per lawn he cuts.
B. Jimmy earns $30 per lawn he cuts.
C. Jimmy earns a flat rate of $45 per day he comes to work.
D. Jimmy earns $25 for coming in to work and an additional $5 per lawn he cuts.

Respuesta :

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

X represents the number of lawns Jimmy cuts so the function would be 5x, meaning that for each lawn he cuts he earns $5. The $25 would be the flat rate that he earns just by going to wotk.

f(x) = 25 + 5x

x is the number of lawns

f(x) is the money he earn

25 is a constant amount

So we can say that for each lawn he cut he earn $5 more, and just by cutting he already earn $25 so the right awnser is D.
