Answer:
a) Debbie sold 52 boxes of fruit for $18 each plus a bonus x, for selling the boxes quickly. Find x, the bonus if Debbie sold the fruit quickly and earned $1200.
Step-by-step explanation:
The model equation is given as:
52(18) + x = 1200
a) Debbie sold 52 boxes of fruit for $18 each plus a bonus x, for selling the boxes quickly. Find x, the bonus if Debbie sold the fruit quickly and earned $1200.
52($18) + x = $1200
52(18) + x = $1200
Option a is correct
b) Katrina earned $18 plus a weekly bonus x, for managing her money wisely each week for 52 weeks. Find x, if Katrina earned $1200.
x = weekly bonus, hence, we have the equation:
$18 + (x)52 = $1200
Option b is wrong
c) Marissa has $52 in her savings account. She earns $18 for each lawn she mows. Find x, the number of weeks she needs to mow lawns in order to have a total of $1200.
This is represented as:
$52 + $18(x) = $1200
Option c is wrong
d) Edward had a balance of $52 in the bank. He added x dollars to his account last month. This week he deposited another $18. Find x, the amount Edward deposited in the bank last month if his total savings is now $1200.
This is represented as :
$52+ $x + $18 = $1200
Option d is wrong.
Therefore, the correct statement that modelled the equation is option a
