A television with a price of $300 is to be purchased with an initial payment of $60 and weekly payments of $30. Which of the following equations can be used to find the number of weekly payments, w, required to complete the purchase, assuming there are no taxes or fees?
Correct answer: C. 300 = 30w + 60
- A. 300 = 30w − 60
- B. 300 = 30w
- C. 300 = 30w + 60
- D. 300 = 60w − 30
Explanation
Choice C is correct. To complete the purchase, the initial payment of $60 plus the w weekly payments of $30 must be equivalent to the $300 price of the television. The total, in dollars, of w weekly payments of $30 can be expressed by 30w. It follows that 300 = 30w + 60 can be used to find the number of weekly payments, w, required to complete the purchase.
