Question

Yall I Need Help : Victor Has Saved $129.85 . Victor writes the equation below to help him determine x , the additional amount that he needs to save to have enough to but the bicycle . $89.25 + 129.85 = x Does Victor's equation correctly model the problem ? ​

Answer 1

I don't know what $89.25 represents in the question but I can just assume that he saved that much more. "x" represents how much more he needs.

No, he doe not represent the equation correctly. "x" should not be on the right side of the equation.

Let "y" represent the total amount of the bicycle.

The correct equation should look like:

89.25 + 129.85 + x = y

Best of Luck!
