one sec

After 5 weeks, Rudolph is $285 in debt After 6 weeks, Rudolph is $185 in debt After 7 weeks, Rudolph is $100 in debt. After 8 weeks, Rudolph is $40 in debt

OpenStudy (shane_b):

@sassyjazz: You just need to take 650 and subtract the number of weeks paid times $76. If the equation is false, it's not a possible scenario: 650-(5 * 76) = 285...which is false.

OpenStudy (shane_b):

Now just check the others...

OpenStudy (anonymous):
