Question

She starts with $100 and plans to add $50 each week. write an equation she can use to calculate the amount of money she will have after any number of weeks. how much money will she have after 1 year?

Answer 1

Main Answer:

2700 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of weeks and y be the total amount of money, then the equation can be written as,

`y=50x+100` -------(1)

In a year there are 52 weeks.

Money she will have after 1 year is found out by putting x = 52 in the equation (1), we get

`y=50(52)+100`

`y=2600+100`

∴
`y=2700`

Therefore, the money she have after 1 year is 2700 dollars.
