Which of the following equations can be used to find the number of weekly payments, www, required to complete the purchase, assuming there are no taxes or fees?

Answer 1

Answer:
Equation which can be used to find the number of weekly payments w
is 300 = 60 + 3 w.
Explanation:
Here, the selling price of the TV =$300
The initial TV payment = $60
Per week payment of TV = $30
The number of weeks, the payment is made = w
So, the amount paid for TV in w weeks = w x ( Payment in 1 week)
= w x ( $30) = 30 w
So, The total SP of TV = Initial Payment + Payment made in w weeks
⇒ 300 = 60 + 3w
Hence, equation which can be used to find the number of weekly
payments w is 300 = 60 + 3 w.
