Question

Solve for h. You are working to save money for a video game console. You need to save $500. You already have $200 saved. You work at GameStop and make $12 an hour. Write and solve an equation to represent how many hours (h) you need to work to make the rest of the money. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

25 more hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to make an equation

200+12x=500

Then you solve it by:

Subtracting 200 from both sides

12x=300

Then divide both sides by 12

x=25

Then you can check your answer by plugging in the number

200+12x25=500

Hope this helps
