2x+7=15
2 x plus 7 equals 15

15−7=2x
15 minus 7 equals 2 x

7−2x=15
7 minus 2 x equals 15

2x−7=15
2 x minus 7 equals 15

Let's set up an equation to represent the problem:

100 + 27x = 343

Where x is the number of weeks.

Now let's solve for x:

Subtract 100 from both sides:
27x = 243

Divide both sides by 27:
x = 9

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

Let's set up an equation to represent the problem:

(1/3)x + 12 = 21

Where x is the number of games they played last season.

Now let's solve for x:

Subtract 12 from both sides:
(1/3)x = 9

Multiply both sides by 3:
x = 27

Therefore, they played 27 games last season.

Let's set up an equation to represent the problem:

12.50 + 7.25x = 34.25

Where x is the number of tickets Joseph can buy.

Now let's solve for x:

Subtract 12.50 from both sides:
7.25x = 21.75

Divide both sides by 7.25:
x = 3

Therefore, Joseph can buy 3 tickets.
