Answer :
The correct expression representing how much more money she needs to earn to meet her goal is option B: 80d.
To find out how much more money Emily needs to earn to meet her goal of $100, we can first calculate how much money she has earned so far from picking blueberries.
Since Emily averages 4 buckets per day, after 5 days she would have picked 4 buckets/day 5 days = 20 buckets.
Let's represent the amount she earns per bucket as d dollars, then the total amount earned so far would be 20 buckets dollars/bucket = 20d dollars.
Now, to find out how much more money she needs to earn to meet her goal of $100, we subtract the amount she has already earned from her goal:
$100 (goal) - $20d (earned so far) = $100 - $20d
So, the correct expression representing how much more money she needs to earn to meet her goal is option B: 80d.
- Emily earns d dollars per bucket.
- After 5 days, she has earned 20d dollars from picking blueberries.
- To reach her goal of $100, she needs to earn an additional $100 - $20d.
- The expression 80d represents this difference, indicating how much more money she needs to earn.
