Veronica is saving money to buy a saddle for her

horse that costs $175. She plans to save $10 the
first month and then increase the amount she
saves by $5 each month after the first month.
How many months will it take her to save $175?

It will take her 7 months. 10+15+20+25+30+35+40=175. Remember she is increasing the amount by 5 each month
