Javier has a job installing windows. He earns a rate of $75 per day plus $8 per window installed. He also receives a stipend of $25 for snacks. Javier knows his weekly earnings can be shown with the following expression:. 75d + 8w + 25. . 1..Identify a coefficient, a variable, and a constant in this expression.. . 2.If Javier works for 5 days and installs 48 windows, how much does he earn? . . 3. If Javier gets an increase in his stipend and receives $40 for snacks, would the coefficient, variable, or constant in the equation change? Why?

Verified Answer :

  1. The coefficient is the number before the variable(letter), so 8.
        The variable is the amount of windows (w).
        The constants (stands alone) are $75 and $25.
    2. Laid out: 5x$75 ($75 a day) + 48x$8 ($8 per window) + $25 
                       $
    375                      + $384                             + $25= ($784 earned)
    3. The coefficient is 8.
        The variable is the w (amount of windows).
        The constants are $
    75 and $40.


    The constants changed because it's no longer $
    75 and $25, one of the constants ($25) increased to $40.

Answer:

1) coefficient: 75 Variable: d constant: 25.


2) 75d+8w+25=


755+848+25=


375+384+25=


759+25=


784


3) the constant would change, the reason being that there is no variable attached to the number.



I hope it helps, Regards.
