Question

A company has committed to giving an 800 dollar donation as well as a continuing donation of 150 dollars a month to a local food pantry. Write an expression for the amount the company has donated after m months.

Answer 1

Answer: 150m + 800

Explanation:

The amount of money that a company has donated after m months = 150m + 800.

This equation first multiplies the number of months (m) times $150 per month, and then adds to it the original $800 donation. So, the total is 150m + 800.
