Question

Andre received $60 for his birthday and put it in his piggy bank. Each week, he puts 3 more dollars in his bank. The amount of money in dollars D in his bank is given by D = 3w + 60, where w is the number of weeks he has saved 3 dollars. His sister Lana makes a table of reasonable values for w. Lana selects 12 as a value for w.

What is the corresponding table entry for D?


A.
372


B.
96


C.
75


D.
64

Answer 1

96 → B

substitute w = 12 into the equation D = 3w + 60

D = (3 × 12 ) + 60 = 36 + 60 = 96
