Solution

The correct situations that can be solved using the equation 6x + 20 = 176 are:

  1. Damian washing cars: In this situation, the 20percarcanberepresentedby20xandthe20 per car can be represented by 20x and the 6 tip can be represented by 6. The total amount of money Damian made is $176. Therefore, this situation fits the equation.

  2. Mariette selling cookies: In this situation, the 6perboxofcookiescanberepresentedby6xandthe6 per box of cookies can be represented by 6x and the 20 bonus can be represented by 20. The total amount of money Mariette made is $176. Therefore, this situation fits the equation.

The other two situations (Coach Mac looking for baseballs and Jayden selling movie tickets) do not fit the equation because the values do not match the equation 6x + 20 = 176.
