Answer:

$1200

Step-by-step explanation:

180 divided by 9 is 20, so they earned $20 per car washed. They want to wash 60 cars, and if they wash 60 cars they would earn $1200. (60 x 20)

Answer:

$1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Our revenue is directly proportional to the number of cars. That means our revenue is increasing at a constant rate, and thus, we are getting the same amount of money per car. That means we can find out how much we get from washing 1 car.

[tex]\frac{180}{9} = 20[/tex]

$20 per car.

If we washed 60 cars, we'd earn 60 * $20:

[tex]60*20 = 1200[/tex]

Answer: $1200
