The question is asking you to come up with a real-life example of something that can be represented as 15+ c= 17.50. If I were you I would do sales tax. You bought an item with a 15 dollar price tag, but when you go to check out 2.50 are added in tax to equal 17.50. to solve subtract 15 from 17.50: c= 2.50. Your variable (c) represents the sales tax. Hope that helps! :)
3 * -12 - 17 =
3 * -12 = -36
-36 - 17 = -53
Answer = A
Answer:
6 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Total savings= $325
For every week, his total savings decrease by $28.
Let's form an expression for the amount of money left in his account after w weeks.
325 -28w= 157
28w= 325 -157
28w= 168
<em>Divide by 28 on both sides:</em>
w= 168 ÷28
w= 6
Thus, there are 6 weeks until he has $157.
