Question

Len needs $135.75 for a television. How many weeks will it take her to save enough money to buy a television? Equation: t = 25 + 8.25w

Answer 1

14 weeks

Explanation:

It will take 14 weeks for Len to save enough money to buy a television.

t = 25 + 8.25w

135.75 = 25 + 8.25w

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

14 weeks

Explanation:

t = 25 + 8.25w

Len needs 135.75

135.75 = 25 + 8.25w

Subtract 25 from each side

135.75-25 = 25-25 + 8.25w

110.75 = 8.25w

Divide each side by 8.25

110.75/8.25 = 8.25w/8.25

13.42424 = w

Since we need at least 135.75, it will take Len a little more than 13 weeks, so it will take Len 14 weeks to have enough money
