Respuesta :

Answer:

The expression written by Emma  to represent the amount of the money that Juan earned  is WRONG.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the amount earned by Juan by walking dogs = w

The amount earned byJuan lowing lawns  = (2w - 6)

Now, the total amount earned by Juan

= Amount  earned from (Mowing Lawn +  Walking dogs)

= w +  (2 w - 6)

On further simplification, we get:

w +  (2 w - 6)  =  w +  2w - 6   =  3w-6 =  3(w-2)

So, the total amount earned by Juan = 3(w-2)

Now, the expression written by Emma = 2(3w-6)

and 2(3w-6) ≠ 3(w-2)

Hence, the expression written by Emma  to represent the amount of the money that Juan earned  is WRONG.
