olve the following real-world problem: Destiny opens a checking account with $100 and then deposits $27 each week. How many weeks will it take her account to reach $343?(1 point)

Answer 1

To solve this problem, we can set up an equation where the total amount in the account after a certain number of weeks is given by:

$100 + $27 * Number of weeks = $343

To isolate the variable, we can subtract $100 from both sides of the equation:

$27 * Number of weeks = $343 - $100

$27 * Number of weeks = $243

Finally, to find the number of weeks, we divide both sides of the equation by $27:

Number of weeks = $243 / $27

Number of weeks = 9

Therefore, it will take Destiny 9 weeks for her account to reach $343.
