Greg is saving up his money to buy a new phone. The amount of money he has after any given week (w) can be given by the equation M = 90 + 15w.
How many weeks will it take Greg to save up the $210 he needs to buy the phone?

Respuesta :

Answer:

It will take Greg 8 weeks to save up to buy the phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

M = 90 + 15w

Here,

M represents the money saved

w represents the number of weeks

Greg wants to save 210

Putting M = 210 in the given equation;

210 = 90 + 15w

210 - 90 = 15w

15w = 120

Dividing both sides by 15

[tex]\frac{15w}{15}=\frac{120}{15}\\w = 8[/tex]

Hence,

It will take Greg 8 weeks to save up to buy the phone.
