Let's represent the number of weeks as "w".
At the end of each week, Destiny deposits $27 into her account.
We can write an equation to represent the problem: 100 + 27w = 343.
To solve for "w", we subtract 100 from both sides of the equation: 27w = 343 - 100.
Simplifying further, we get: 27w = 243.
To solve for "w", we divide both sides of the equation by 27: w = 243/27.
Simplifying further, we get: w = 9.
Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343.
At the end of each week, Destiny deposits $27 into her account.
We can write an equation to represent the problem: 100 + 27w = 343.
To solve for "w", we subtract 100 from both sides of the equation: 27w = 343 - 100.
Simplifying further, we get: 27w = 243.
To solve for "w", we divide both sides of the equation by 27: w = 243/27.
Simplifying further, we get: w = 9.
Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343.

Let's break down the information given in the problem:
- Ahmadullah's basketball team will play 21 games this season.
- This number is 12 games more than 13 times the number of games they played last season.
To solve this problem, we need to determine the number of games they played last season, which we can represent as 'x'.
From the given information, we can create an equation:
13x + 12 = 21
Explanation:
- We have 13x because it represents 13 times the number of games they played last season.
- We add 12 because it is 12 games more than 13 times the number of games.
So the equation representing this problem is:
13x + 12 = 21.
To solve for x, we subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
13x = 9.
Then, we divide both sides of the equation by 13:
x = 9/13.
So the number of games they played last season is 9/13 or approximately 0.692 games. However, since the question asks for a whole number answer, we can round up to 1 game.
Therefore, they played 1 game last season.

To find out how many tickets Joseph can buy, we need to subtract the cost of the hat from the total amount of money he has.
Given:
Amount of money Joseph has: $34.25
Cost of the hat: $12.50
Subtracting the cost of the hat from the total amount of money he has:
$34.25 - $12.50 = $21.75
Now, we need to determine how many tickets Joseph can buy with $21.75. We divide the amount of money he has by the cost of each ticket to find the number of tickets:
$21.75 ÷ $7.25 = 3
Therefore, Joseph can buy 3 tickets.
