Answer 1

Given :

Andrew has already played 32 minutes on his video game this morning and wants to play an additional 15 minutes on each of x games after school today.

To Find :

Which equation can be used to find y, the total minutes Andrew will play video games today.

Solution :

Number of minutes he play after school time, n = 15x .

Number of minutes already played, c = 32 .

So, total number of minutes he play games for today is :

y = n + c

y = 15x + 32

Therefore, equation which is useful to find number of minutes video game played per day is y = 15x + 32 .
