Which situation is best represented by the following equation? 2000-200x=1000

Answer 1

The equation 2000-200x=1000 represents a situation where there is an initial amount of 2000 and a decreasing amount of 200 in each period (x), and the final amount is 1000. This equation could represent a scenario where a certain quantity is gradually reduced by 200 in each stage until it reaches a final amount of 1000.
