Answer:

x+40 or 40+x

Step-by-step explanation:

It doesn't tell you the amount of money she's saved before so you make it a variable. I used x.

After mowing she got $40 and decided to add that to her savings.

You already know her savings before, x, and now you have $40.

So you end up writing the expression x+40 or 40+x.

Let’s say that the amount of money saved is the variable ‘x’.

There is a key word in the second sentence to be aware of. It’s simply the word, ‘add’, and when that word is there, we just simply do addition.

Remember that x is always first in an expression, though if it looks weird, you can just switch it; it’s alright.


Key word: Add = addition

Expression: 40 + x
