Question

A student has a savings account with $475 in it.
She deposits $125 of her paycheck into the account
every week. Her goal is to save $7,000 for college.
How long will it be before she has $1350?

Answer 1

Answer: 7 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of weeks

Let y represent the total amount

Amount = Paycheck deposited * number of weeks + Initial amount

y = 125x + 475

Number of weeks until she has $1350

1350 = 125x + 475

125x+475-475=1350-475

125x=875

x=7

Therefore, the student will have $1350 in her bank account after 7 weeks
