Rita is saving up 15,000 to put a down payment on a condominium. If he starts with 8,000 saved and saves an additional $850 each month, which equation represents how far Rita is from her goal of reaching $15,000 saved? Let x stand for months and y stand for dollars.

The equation is 15000=850x+8000 because the total is 15000 and the you started with 8000 and you saved 850 each month. I hope that will help you
