Kareem received $50 during his birthday. In addition, he saves $10 each week. Which equation can help find w, the number of weeks it will take Kareem to save a total of $200?

Answer :

10w+50=200
then to solve-
subtract 50 from both sides so now it’s 10w=150
then divide the 10 from both sides to get w alone
and you should get w=15

Answer: 50+10w=200    w=15

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that Kareem starts off with $50 and every week he gains an additional $10 so as many weeks it takes to get $150 in addition to the $50 he already has to get $200. so $50+$10w=$200 where w represents the number of weeks it takes until the sum is 200
