Answer:

t = 9w

Explanation:

Since you want to find the total amount of dollars (t), you will set the equation equal to that variable.

t = ____

Now, the question is asking for to find the total amount of money in a certain amount of weeks, so we know we'll calculate the total through the rate of per week.

t = _ * w

The last step is simply to find the rate of a bus pass per week. A bus pass costs $9 every week. So to find the total (t), you just have to multiply 9 by the number of weeks (w).

t = 9w

Hope this helps!
