Answer 2

Month 4

Explanation:

Given : Jordan is saving for a new laptop that costs $325.

Equation: d=80+75m

To Find: Which is the first month in which Jordan will have saved enough money to buy the laptop?

Solution:

Equation:
`d=80+75m`

where d is the total amount he has saved so far.

m shows the number of months he has been saving.

Now we are given that he needs to save $325.

So, To find the first month in which Jordan will have saved enough money to buy the laptop

Substitute d = 325 in the equation:

`325=80+75m`

`245=75m`

`(245)/(75)=m`

`3.266=m`

Thus,the first month in which Jordan will have saved enough money to buy the laptop is Month 4.
