Question

Devonte opens a savings account by making a deposit of $249.45. Every week, he deposits another $31.75 in the account. Which expression shows the amount of money that will be in the account 'w' weeks after the account is opened?

Answer 1

To find the total you would need to multiply the 31.75 by w to get the total amount of his weekly deposits, then that would get added to the initial amount of 249.45

The equation would be 249.45 + 31.75w

Answer 2

Answer:

249.45 +31.75w

Step-by-step explanation:

When w = 0, the amount is 249.45. This eliminates the first two choices.

When w = 1, the amount is 31.75 greater than 249.45. This eliminates the last choice.

The remaining choice is the correct one:

... 249.45 +31.75w

It shows the account balance is initially 249.45 and increases with increasing w at the rate of 31.75 per week.
