You started this year with $426 saved and you continue to save $17 per month. Write an equation to model this situation (use m for months and s for savings).

Answer:

426+17m=s

Explanation:

You are multiplying 17 by an amount of months (m) then adding 426 dollars to that because it is the amount of money you started with. s means the total savings which is what you'll get by solving the equation once you know how many months you've been saving.
