Answer 1

C.) 4(750c-700t) ; D.) 2800t - 3000c

Explanation:

Time taken :

Tatenda = t sec/m^2

Ciara = c sec/m^2

Tatenda = 700m^2 per week

Ciara = 750m^2 per week

Which expressions can we use to describe how many more seconds Tatenda spends than Ciara spends mowing lawns during 4

Total Time taken over four weeks :

Tatenda = 4(t * 700) = 4(700c)

Ciara = 4(c * 750) = 4(750c )

Number of seconds Tatenda spends more than Ciara : meaning Tatenda spends more seconds than

Tatenda - Ciara

4(700t) - 4(750c) = 4(700t - 750c)

4(700t - 750c)

Or

4(700t - 750c) = 2800t - 3000c

2800t - 3000c
