Answer is D because he charge 10 $ mowing free +3 per square yard of lawn
lawn has dimensions:
x and y
Area= x*y=xy squar yard
so charge is 
10 +3*Area=10+3xy
 

Answer:

Option D is correct.

Charge for the mowing = 10 + 3xy

Step-by-step explanation:

here, x represents the length of the lawn and y represents the width of the lawn.

[tex]\text{Area of lawn} = \text{length} \times \text{width}[/tex] = xy square yard

Perimeter of lawn = 2 (x+y) = 2x + 2y yard

As per the statement:

Devin has started a lawn care service. He will charge a mowing fee of $10 plus $3 per square yard of lawn.

then;

Charge for mowing = [tex]10 + 3 \cdot \text{Area of lawn}[/tex]

                               = 10 + 3xy

Also, he offers trimming service at $8 plus $1 per yard of the perimeter.

⇒ Trimming service =[tex]8 + 1 \cdot \text{Perimeter}[/tex] = 8 + (2x +2y)

Therefore, from the expression: 10 + 3xy +8 + (2x+2y)

10 + 3xy represents the charge for the mowing.
