The correct equation would be 75/8 = x1.
The equation that represents how to compute Raquel's wage for each yard is 75/8=x1.
To understand why, let's break down the equation:
- The numerator 75 represents the total amount Raquel gets paid, which is $75 per week.
- The denominator 8 represents the number of yards Raquel mows.
- The variable x1 represents the amount Raquel gets paid for each yard.
So, by dividing the total payment ($75) by the number of yards (8), we can find the value of x1, which represents Raquel's wage for each yard.
Therefore, the equation is 75/8=x1.
