Q:

Jeff has 50,670 miles on his truck. He drives 200 miles each week traveling to and from work. He plans on selling his truck after he reaches 75,000 miles. Write an equation that could be used to determine the number of weeks, w, that it will take for Jeff to have 75,000 miles on his truck.

Accepted Solution

A:
So the total is 75000 miles, so that is what the whole equation equals. So we start out with 75000=. Then, 200 is the number that is multiplied by the amount of weeks, so we then have 75000 = 200x. Finally, 50670 is the start, so we add it to the end. The final equation is 75000 = 200x + 50670.
