Question 912626
Let x = number of months Huda saved


She starts with $30 and adds $25 each month. I'm assuming she deposits $25 each time. So for x months, she'll add on 25x dollars.


Total Saved Over x Months: 30 + 25x


This is set equal to 180 because "After several months, she had a total of $180 in her account"


---------------------------------------------------------------


30 + 25x = 180


25x = 180 - 30


25x = 150


x = 150/25


x = 6


She has saved for <font color="red">6 months</font>
