x - 75 = 200

Answer 1

The equation best represents x, the amount of money Mr. Schultz needs to save to buy the shoes is 75+x=200

Explanation:

Mr. Schultz was given amount on his birthday = $75

We are given that Mr. Schultz needs $200 to buy some new Jordan shoes.

Let x be the amount of money Mr. Schultz needs to save to buy the shoes

So, Total Amount saved = 75+x

Total cost of shoes = $200

So, 75+x=200

So, The required equation is 75+x=200

So, Option A is true

Hence The equation best represents x, the amount of money Mr. Schultz needs to save to buy the shoes is 75+x=200
