Please answer this question now and I'll make you brainliest, etc: Marcellus is making a deposit that will leave him with a balance of $381. He noticed that if he added $54 to the amount he started with in his account and then tripled the sum, he would get the new amount. How much did Marcellus originally have in his account?

Part A: Which equation represents the situation?

A. 3m + 54 = 381, where m represents the amount originally in his account

B. 3(m + 54) = 381, where m represents the amount originally in his account

C. 3m − 54 = 381, where m represents the amount originally in his account

D. 3(m − 54) = 381, where m represents the amount originally in his account

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial money deposited in the account be x:

If he added $54 to the amount he started with in his account, the expression will become:

x+54

If the sum is tripled, we will have:

3(x+54)

Since the balance an-mount is $381, the final equation will give:

3(x+54) = 381

The equation that represents the situation is 3(x+54) = 381

Next is to calculate x:

3(x+54) = 381

open the parenthesis

3x+162 = 381

3x = 381 - 162

3x = 219

x = 219/3

x = 73

Hence the original amount in his account is $73

fa tha first one you gonna add y to both sides

it look like this

x-y+y=6+y

x=y+6

therefore your answer is

x =y+6

fa tha second one

you gonna flip tha equation

it gonna look like x-4y=y

then add 4 to both sides

it gonna look like tha

x-4 +4 =y +4

so therefore tha answer is x=y+4

step-by-step explanation:

2x + 8
