Answer 1

2s + 100; when s = 80 the latest balance of Ahmed's savings is $260

Explanation:

s = amount he originally had in savings

doubled his savings, then deposited another hundred dollars

2s + 100

If s = 80

2s + 100

= 160 + 100

= 260

2s + 100; when s = 80 the latest balance of Ahmed's savings is $260
