To represent this problem with an equation in the form px + q = r, let x represent the number of games they played last season.
The given information is that they will play 15 games this season, which is 7 games fewer than 2 times the number of games they played last season. So, 2x - 7 represents the number of games they played last season.
Therefore, the equation representing this problem is:
2x - 7 = 15.
So, the correct equation is 2x - 7 = 15.

To solve this problem, we can set up an equation in the form px + q = r, where x represents the number of weeks.
In this case, Destiny deposits $27 each week, so the amount she deposits in x weeks is 27x. Since she opened the account with $100, the initial amount in her account is $100.
Therefore, the equation representing this problem is: 27x + 100 = 343. In this equation, 27x represents the total amount Destiny deposits in x weeks, 100 represents the initial amount in her account, and 343 represents the target amount she wants to reach.
To solve the equation:
27x + 100 = 343
Subtract 100 from both sides:
27x = 243
Divide both sides by 27:
x = 9
So, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343. Therefore, the correct response is 9 weeks.
In this case, Destiny deposits $27 each week, so the amount she deposits in x weeks is 27x. Since she opened the account with $100, the initial amount in her account is $100.
Therefore, the equation representing this problem is: 27x + 100 = 343. In this equation, 27x represents the total amount Destiny deposits in x weeks, 100 represents the initial amount in her account, and 343 represents the target amount she wants to reach.
To solve the equation:
27x + 100 = 343
Subtract 100 from both sides:
27x = 243
Divide both sides by 27:
x = 9
So, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343. Therefore, the correct response is 9 weeks.

To solve this problem, we can set up an equation in the form px + q = r, where x represents the number of games they played last season.
The given information is that they will play 21 games this season, which is 12 games more than 13 times the number of games they played last season. So, 13x + 12 represents the number of games they played last season.
Therefore, the equation representing this problem is:
13x + 12 = 21.
To solve the equation:
13x = 21 - 12
13x = 9
Divide both sides by 13:
x = 9/13
So, they played approximately 0.69 games last season. This is not a whole number, so none of the provided responses are correct.

To find out how many tickets Joseph can buy, we need to subtract the cost of the hat from his total money and then divide the remaining amount by the cost of each ticket.
Starting with $34.25, subtracting the cost of the hat ($12.50), leaves us with $21.75. Now, we divide this amount by the cost of each ticket ($7.25).
$21.75 divided by $7.25 equals 3.
Therefore, Joseph can buy 3 tickets. So, the correct response is 3 tickets.
