Question

James did not get the PlayStation that he wanted for his birthday, but instead, he got $80. He decided that he will save the $80 and save his $20 allowance every week, for the next few weeks, until he has exactly $360 to buy the PlayStation himself. Write an equation that models the story. Use w to represent the number of weeks.

Answer 1

W=14 that’s because 360-80=280 then you have to divide that by 20. And you get 14 weeks.
