Question

Raul opened a savings account with 4300. Each week, x, Raul pays the dog sitter 30 from his savings account. Write a function, f(x), that is equal to the amount of money in the account after Raul pays the dog sitter each week.

Answer 1

Given:

Amount in the savings account = 4300

Each week, Raul pays the dog sitter 30 from his savings account.

To find:

The function, f(x), that is equal to the amount of money in the account after Raul pays the dog sitter each week.

Solution:

Let x be the number of weeks.

Raul pays the dog sitter in 1 week = 30

Raul pays the dog sitter in x week = 30x

Remaining amount = Initial amount - Amount he pays the dog sitter

$f(x)=4300-30x$

Therefore, the required function is $f(x)=4300-30x$.
