Bruce would like to buy a pair of shoes that cost $155. He already has $35. His mom will pay him $20 a week to do chores around the house. Write an equation that can be used to find out how long it will take Bruce to pay for his shoes.

155=35= 120

120+20x=155

Step-by-step explanation:

equation: 35 + 20w = 155

w = 6

He needs $155, and he already has 35. The 20 is how much he will get a week, and the w represents how many weeks will pass before he gets enough twenties for the shoes.

If he gets $20 each week, and he already has $35, then after 6 weeks he will have enough money for the shoes.

hope this helps

glide reflection.

its mainly because the pattern will be infinite and will never end. it will look like a gilder or like a filpbook when set to motion.

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
