To solve this problem, we can set up an equation. Let's call the number of weeks it takes for Destiny's account to reach $343 as "x".
The initial amount in the account is $100. Every week, $27 is deposited into the account. So, after x weeks, the amount in the account would be 100 + 27x.
We want to find when the amount in the account reaches $343, so we can set up the following equation:
100 + 27x = 343
To solve for x, we can subtract 100 from both sides of the equation:
27x = 343 - 100
27x = 243
Finally, we can divide both sides by 27 to solve for x:
x = 243/27
x = 9
Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343. Answer: 9 weeks.
The initial amount in the account is $100. Every week, $27 is deposited into the account. So, after x weeks, the amount in the account would be 100 + 27x.
We want to find when the amount in the account reaches $343, so we can set up the following equation:

To solve for x, we can subtract 100 from both sides of the equation:
27x = 343 - 100
27x = 243
Finally, we can divide both sides by 27 to solve for x:
x = 243/27
x = 9
Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343. Answer: 9 weeks.
