Matt is saving for college! He puts $20 in his savings account each week. How many weeks, w, will it take for him to save $15000?

Answer 1

To find out how many weeks, \( w \), it will take for Matt to save $15,000 by saving $20 each week, you can use the following equation:

\[ 20w = 15000 \]

Now, solve for \( w \) by dividing both sides by 20:

\[ w = \frac{15000}{20} \]

Calculating the right side:

\[ w = 750 \]

So, it will take Matt 750 weeks to save $15,000.
