Let x represent the number of weeks it will take for her account to reach $259.
The amount of money she saves each week can be represented by 19x (19 dollars multiplied by the number of weeks).
Her initial amount in the account is $50.
Therefore, her total amount in the account after saving for x weeks can be represented by the equation:
50 + 19x = 259

Let x represent the number of games they played last season.
The number of games they will play this season is 2x - 7 (twice the number of games plus 7 less).
According to the problem, the number of games they will play this season is 15.
Therefore, the equation can be represented as:
2x - 7 = 15

Let x represent the number of weeks it will take for Destiny's account to reach $343.
The amount of money she deposits each week can be represented by 27x (27 dollars multiplied by the number of weeks).
Her initial amount in the account is $100.
Therefore, her total amount in the account after x weeks can be represented by the equation:
100 + 27x = 343

To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation by subtracting 100 from both sides:
27x = 343 - 100
27x = 243

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 27 to solve for x:
x = 243 / 27
x = 9

Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343.

Let x represent the number of games they played last season.
According to the problem, the number of games they will play this season is 12 more than 1/3 of the number of games they played last season.
1/3 of the number of games they played last season can be represented as (1/3)x.
Therefore, the equation can be represented as:
(1/3)x + 12 = 21

To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation by subtracting 12 from both sides:
(1/3)x = 21 - 12
(1/3)x = 9

Finally, multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for x:
x = 9 * 3
x = 27

Therefore, they played 27 games last season.

The solution to the equation is given by h = 4, where h represents the number of hours Kallie spent bowling. This means that Kallie spent 4 hours bowling.

The equation itself, 2.50h + 7.5 = 20, represents the total cost in dollars that Kallie spent to go bowling. The term 2.50h represents the cost of renting the bowling lane for h hours, and 7.5 represents the cost of renting a pair of bowling shoes. The total sum of these costs, 2.50h + 7.5, should equal the total amount Kallie spent, which is $20.

Therefore, by solving the equation and finding that h = 4, we can conclude that Kallie spent 4 hours bowling, and the total cost for renting the lane and shoes added up to $20.

I apologize for any confusion. Upon reviewing the equation, it appears there was an error in the previous response. Allow me to correct it:

To find the correct solution to the equation 2.50h + 7.5 = 20, we can start by isolating the term containing h by subtracting 7.5 from both sides of the equation:

2.50h = 20 - 7.5
2.50h = 12.5

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 2.5 to solve for h:

h = 12.5 / 2.5
h = 5

Therefore, the solution to the equation is h = 5, which means Kallie spent 5 hours bowling.
