Question

Avery has a total of $12.50 in her piggy bank at home. Each week she takes out $1.25 to ride the city bus. Write an equation representing the balance, C, in the piggy bank, where w is the number of weeks.

Answer 1

- C = 1.25w – 12.50
- C = 1.25w + 12.50
- C = –1.25w + 12.50
- C = –1.25w – 12.50

Answer 2

-C= -1.25w + 12.50

Answer 3

Why though ;n;

Answer 4

c= 12.50 - 1.25w
Because she's taken 1.25 dollars out of 12.50 each week

Answer 5

and c= 12.50-1.25w is the same as saying -c= -1.25w + 12.50

Answer 6

Then why wouldn't it be C = 1.25w – 12.50?

Answer 7

OOOOh

Answer 9
