Cody has 22 rare coins. Each year Clark plans to add 15 coins to his collection. How many years will it take Cody to collect 577 coins?(1 point) Responses 40 years 40 years 37 years 37 years 27 years 27 years 25 years

Answer 1

To determine the number of years it will take Cody to collect 577 coins, we need to set up an equation.

Let x = the number of years it will take Cody to collect 577 coins.

In x years, Cody will have 22 + 15x coins.

We can set up the equation as follows:

22 + 15x = 577

Subtracting 22 from both sides:

15x = 555

Dividing both sides by 15:

x = 37

Therefore, it will take Cody 37 years to collect 577 coins.
