The cable company withdraws $67 per month from Denise's checking account

for automatic bill payment. There was $250.75 in Denise's checking account at
the beginning of the year, and no other deductions or additions were made to
the account. How much money is in the account after two months?

Answer: 116.75

Step-by-step explanation: Since $67 is being withdrawn from her checking account EACH month the equation would be $250.75 - 67x.

We already know the value of "x" (2) so we plug that in.

250.75 - 67(2)

Now we multiply and subtract.

250.75 - 134

116.75
