Question

Jeremiah is saving money for a tutoring job after the first 3 weeks he saved 135$ assume the situation is proportional use the unit rate to write an equation relating the amount saved s to the number of weeks w worked at this rate how much will Jeremiah save after eight weeks? Plz help

Answer 1

135/3= 45

Equation: 45w=s

45(8)= 360

Jeremiah saved $360.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

s = 45w

Explanation:

Jeremiah is saving money for a tutoring job.

He saved $135 after 3 weeks.

Therefore, his saving per week =
`\frac{\text{Total amount}}{\text{Number of weeks}}`

=
`(135)/(3)`

= $45

If he works for w weeks then at the same rate total amount saved by him will be

= $45w

If this amount is equal to $s then equation that represents the total saving after w weeks will be

s = 45w
