Jalen is saving for a new tablet. It costs $120, including tax. He has already saved $50. Write an equation to represent how much more he needs to save (x). *1 pointx + 50 = 12050x = 12050 + 120 = xx - 120 = 50

Answer 1

To represent how much more Jalen needs to save for the tablet, we can write the equation:

\[ x + 50 = 120 \]

Where \( x \) is the amount Jalen still needs to save.

To isolate \( x \), you can subtract 50 from both sides:

\[ x = 120 - 50 \]

So, Jalen needs to save \( x = 70 \) dollars more for the tablet.

The correct equation is:

\( x + 50 = 120 \)
