    The expression written by Emma to represent the amount of the money that Juan earned is WRONG.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Here, the amount earned by Juan by walking dogs = w

    The amount earned byJuan lowing lawns = (2w - 6)

    Now, the total amount earned by Juan

    = Amount earned from (Mowing Lawn + Walking dogs)

    = w + (2 w - 6)

    On further simplification, we get:

    w + (2 w - 6) = w + 2w - 6 = 3w-6 = 3 (w-2)

    So, the total amount earned by Juan = 3 (w-2)

    Now, the expression written by Emma = 2 (3w-6)

    and 2 (3w-6) ≠ 3 (w-2)

    Hence, the expression written by Emma to represent the amount of the money that Juan earned is WRONG.
