Question

Amanda is saving money for an item that costs
$122.50, including tax. She has $55 and saves an additional
$2.50 each week. The relationship between the amount of
money she has saved (S) and the number of weeks she has
saved (x) is represented by the equation below. s=2.5x+55
How many weeks will it take Amanda to save $122.50?*​

Answer 1

Answer: $27=x

Step-by-step explanation: I think that problem was worded wrong or something. It should be $122.50=$2.5x+$55. First, you subtract $55 from both sides of the equals sign. You end up with $67.50=$2.5x. Then, yo divide both sides of the equals sign. You will end up with $27=x.
