Answer 1

Explanation:

A school dance club is selling bottled water at a football game to raise funds. The club has raised $26 so far and has the goal of raising $100. If each bottle of water earns the club an additional $2, which equation can be used to find the number of bottles of water w that the club needs to sell to reach their goal?

equation:

100 = 2w - 26

solving:

100 = 2w - 26

74 = 2w

w = 37 more bottles
