Simon is saving his money to buy an Xbox. He earns money by mowing lawns for his neighbors. The situation can be represented using the equation 35x – 2y = -42 where x represents the number of lawns mowed and y represents the amount of money Simon has in his bank account. How much money does Simon earn for mowing each lawn?

Deanne works in a shoe factory. She packs pairs of tennis shoes and pairs of boots in boxes to ship to shoe stores. The tennis shoes weigh 2 pounds and boots weigh 5 pounds. Each box can weigh a total of 50 pounds. Assuming x represents the number of pairs of tennis shoes and y represents the number of pairs of boots, write an equation to represent the situation.

• 2x + 5y = 50

• 5x + 2y = 50

• 2x + 5y = 25

• 5x + 2y = 25
