Paul gets $5 every week for doing his chores he is saving money to get a skateboard that cost $85 he has already saved $25 which equation describes the number of weeks that is with Paul to save enough money to buy the skateboard

Respuesta :

5x+25=85

Add 25 because he already saved that amount of money
5x because 5 is the amount of money he makes a week and x= number of weeks.
And =85 because that’s the total cost
To find the amount of weeks, just solve the equation
5x+25=85
5x=60
X=12 weeks
Hope it helps
