Maria opens a savings account with $50 and then saves $19 each week. How many weeks will it take for her
account to reach $259? Represent this problem with an equation in the form px + q = r. (1 point)
• 19x + 50 = 259
• 259 ÷ 50 = 19x
• 50x + 19 = 259
• 19% - 50 = 259
the bots right on everything except the 4th one about the games
its 27
The correct equation would be: 19x + 50 = 259.
To represent the given problem with an equation in the form px + q = r, we need to represent the amount in Maria's account as a function of the number of weeks.
Let's break down the problem:
Maria initially has $50 in her savings account.
She saves $19 each week.
She wants to find out how many weeks it will take for her account to reach $259.
Let's assume the number of weeks required is 'x'.
Since Maria saves $19 each week, the additional amount in her account after 'x' weeks would be 19x.
Adding this additional amount to her initial amount of $50, we get the equation:
19x + 50 = 259
Therefore, the correct representation of this problem with an equation is:
19x + 50 = 259.
The correct equation to represent this problem is:
19x + 50 = 259
Annette's soccer team will play 15 games this season. That is 7 games fewer than 2 times the number of games they played last season. How many games did they play last season? Represent this problem with an
equation in the form px + 9 = r. (1 point)
• 2x +7 = 15
0 7-2=15
0 22-7 = 15
0 15-7 = 2x
To represent the given problem with an equation in the form px + q = r, we need to represent the number of games Annette's soccer team played last season.
Let's break down the problem:
Annette's soccer team will play 15 games this season.
This is 7 games fewer than 2 times the number of games they played last season.
Let's assume the number of games they played last season is 'x'.
2 times the number of games they played last season would be 2x.
7 games fewer than 2 times the number of games they played last season would be 2x - 7.
Therefore, the equation to represent this problem is:
2x - 7 = 15.
Solve the following real-world problem: Destiny opens a checking account with $100 and then deposits $27
each week. How many weeks will it take for her account to reach $343? (1 point)
• 9 weeks
• 16.4 weeks
• 3.16 weeks
• 12.7 weeks
To solve the problem, we need to set up an equation to represent the situation.
Let's break down the problem:
Destiny initially has $100 in her checking account.
She deposits $27 each week.
She wants to find out how many weeks it will take for her account to reach $343.
Let's assume the number of weeks required is 'x'.
Since Destiny deposits $27 each week, the additional amount in her account after 'x' weeks would be 27x.
Adding this additional amount to her initial amount of $100, we get the equation:
27x + 100 = 343
Now, let's solve for x:
27x + 100 = 343
27x = 343 - 100
27x = 243
x = 243/27
x = 9
Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343.
The correct answer is: 9 weeks.
Solve the following real-world problem: Ahmadullah's basketball team will play 21 games this season. That is 12 games more than _ the number of games they played last season. How many games did they play last season? (1 point)
• 33 games
O 11 games
• 7 games
• 27 games
To solve this problem, let's set up an equation.
Let x be the number of games they played last season.
According to the problem, this season they played 21 games, which is 12 more than the number of games they played last season.
So the equation is:
x + 12 = 21
Now, let's solve for x:
x = 21 - 12
x = 9
Therefore, they played 9 games last season.
The correct answer is: 9 games.
