Question

Jason has some money. His grandmother gives him another $18.00. Write an expression to show how much money Jason has now. Use x for your variable.

Answer 1

x + 18

Explanation:

The variable is going to be the amount of money Jason has before his grandmother gives him money.

That variable is x.

Then, his grandmother gives him $18. The $18 would be added to the amount of money that Jason already has.

The expressions would be x + 18.
