Question

Sylvia has money saved in her bank account she also has a $30 gift card The total amount she can spend is represented by which equation A y = x + 30 B x = y + 30 C y = x + 900 D x = 30y

Answer 1

In the context of the problem, let's define the variables:

- Let \( x \) represent the amount of money Sylvia has saved in her bank account.
- Let \( y \) represent the total amount of money she can spend.

According to the information presented:

- Sylvia can spend the money she has in her bank account plus the $30 gift card.

Therefore, the equation representing the total amount she can spend is:

\[ y = x + 30 \]

This matches option A:

**A) \( y = x + 30 \)**

So the correct answer is **A**.
