Jane borrowed $200 from her parents to buy a video game system. She has agreed to pay them back $35 each week. Which equation represents the amount of money Jane still owes her parents, p, after w weeks?

Respuesta :

Answer:

p = 200 - 35w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent

Number of weeks = x

Amount of money Jane still owes her parents = p

From the above question, we are told:

Jane borrowed = $200

She agreed to pay = $35 each week. Therefore, the equation that represents the amount of money Jane still owes her parents, p, after w weeks is written as:

p = $200 - $35 × w

p = 200 - 35w
