Question

Alan makes $95 each week for

babysitting his baby cousin. He has
$45 dollars saved, and wants to reach
$235. Write an equation that
represents the scenarios

Answer 1

I guess the answer is:

45$(which are saved)+95*w

To reach 235$:

235-45= 190$ is the remaining amount he has to reach.

So the equation is:

45+95w=235

which solved is:

95w=235-45

95w=190

w=2.
