The equation to represent the number of weeks it will take Maria to reach $259 will be in the form pr + q = r, where:
p = $19 (savings per week)
q = $50 (initial amount)
r = $259 (target amount)
So, the equation will be:
19w + 50 = 259
where w is the number of weeks it will take Maria to reach $259.
Maria opens a savings account with $50 and then saves $19 each week. How many weeks will it take her to reach 259? Represent it with the form pr + q = r
