Write an equation to determine the number of weeks he needs to save money, use w to represent the number of weeks he needs to save money?\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "60 + 30w = 270\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This equation says that you had 60 dollars and you save 30 dollars per w, or week, which will add up to equal 270. If needed to be solved:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "60 + 30w = 270 \n" ); document.write( "-60 -60 Subtract 60 from both sides\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "30w = 210 \n" ); document.write( "/30 /30 Divide both sides by 30\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "w = 7 You get the answer of 7\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It will take you 7 weeks to save.
