Maisie has saved up $50 to buy concert tickets, but the tickets cost $125. She is able to earn $15 per day by walking her neighbor’s dogs. How many days will Maisie have to walk the dogs to earn enough money to buy the tickets? Let d = the number of days worked.

Answer 5

ok, so we first need to write an equation to set up all our information. so we know she needs $125, she already has $50 and we need to know how many days, d, she needs to work.

this gives us:
\[125= 15d+50\]

do you follow?
