Maria opens a savings account with the dollars and then saves $19 each week how many weeks will it take for her account to reach 259 represent this problem with equation in the form PX + q = r
Let's represent the number of weeks it will take for Maria's account to reach $259 as "x".
Since Maria saves $19 each week, the total amount she saves in "x" weeks will be 19x.
The equation representing the problem in the form "PX + q = r" is:
19x + dollars (initial amount) = $259
Let's represent the number of weeks it will take for Maria's account to reach $259 as 'x'. Since she saves $19 each week, the total amount saved in 'x' weeks can be calculated as 19x.
The initial amount in the account is 0, as Maria just opened it. Therefore, we can represent the equation in the form PX + q = r as:
0 + 19x = 259
This equation represents that the initial amount (0) plus the amount saved in 'x' weeks (19x) equals the target amount ($259).
Let's represent this problem with an equation in the form of "PX + q = r":
Let P represent the number of weeks it takes for Maria's account to reach $259.
Let X represent the amount of money Maria saves per week ($19 in this case).
Let q represent the initial amount of money in her account ($0 in this case).
Let r represent the target amount Maria wants in her account ($259 in this case).
The equation would be: P * X + q = r
Substituting the values, we have: P * 19 + 0 = 259
Therefore, the equation would be: 19P = 259.
Antenna soccer team will play 15 games this season that is seven games fewer than two times the number of games they play last season how many games did they play last season represent this problem with equation in the form PX + q = r
Let's represent the number of games they played last season as "x".
According to the problem, the Antenna soccer team will play 15 games this season, which is seven games fewer than two times the number of games they played last season.
So, we have the equation 2x - 7 = 15.
To represent the equation in the form "PX + q = r", we rearrange the equation:
2x - 7 = 15
2x = 15 + 7
2x = 22
x = 22/2
x = 11
The Antenna soccer team played 11 games last season. Hence, the equation to represent this problem in the form "PX + q = r" is:
11x + 0 = 15
Wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's try representing the problem correctly.
