Question

(NEED HELP ASAP!!) You are saving for a skateboard. Your aunt gives you $45 to start, and you save $3 each

week. The expression 45 + 3 w gives the amount of money you save after w weeks. How
much will you have after six weeks?

Answer 1

The answer is $171

Explanation:

There 7 days in 1 week so 7 times 6 which is 42 then you do 42 times 3 which is 126 then 126 plus 45 is 171 there's your answer

Answer 2

$63

Explanation:

You have the constant, $45. You then receive $3 each week. This can be written at $45 + $3w, where w is the number of weeks. So in this case, we need to find out how much money you will have after 6 weeks. We just need to plug in 6 weeks into the equation. The new equation will now be $45 + $3(6).

3 times 6 is $18.

$45 + $18 will give you a final answer of $63.
