Brian is putting money into a savings account. He starts with $350 in the savings account, and each week he adds $70 . Let S represent the total amount of money in the savings account (in dollars), and let W represent the number of weeks Brian has been adding money. Write an equation relating S to W . Then use this equation to find the total amount of money in the savings account after 18 weeks.

OpenStudy (bee_see):

S=total amount of money in dollars and W=number of weeks.

OpenStudy (bee_see):

S=350 + 70W

OpenStudy (bee_see):

the 350 is a deposit.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (bee_see):

OpenStudy (bee_see):
