Question

Andrew has already played 32 minutes on his video game today and wants to play an additional 15 minutes each of x games after school today. What equation can be used to find y, the total minutes Andrew will play video games today?

Answer 1

y = 15x+32

Explanation:

Given

y to be the total minutes Andrew will play video games today

x is the total number of games played after school

If he wants to play an additional 15 minutes each of x games after school today, the total minutes he will use for the x games will be 15* x = (15x)minutes

We are told that he has initially spent 32minutes on video games. hence;

Total minutes Andrew used on games y = (15*x)+32

The required equation will be y = 15x+32
