Isaiah earns $60 per week mowing lawns in the summer and shoveling driveways in the winter. He invested $220 in equipment. How long will it take him to earn $860? Find the equation and solve.

18 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation where x is the number of weeks he works

60x - 220 will represent his profit, since he gets $60 a week but spent $220 in equipment.

Set this equal to 860, then solve for x, to find when he will earn $860

60x - 220 = 860

60x = 1080

x = 18

So, it will take him 18 weeks to earn $860
