Answer:
Month 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Jordan is saving for a new laptop that costs $325.
Equation: d=80+75m
To Find: Which is the first month in which Jordan will have saved enough money to buy the laptop?
Solution:
Equation: [tex]d=80+75m[/tex]
where d is the total amount he has saved so far.
m shows the number of months he has been saving.
Now we are given that he needs to save $325.
So, To find the first month in which Jordan will have saved enough money to buy the laptop
Substitute d = 325 in the equation:
[tex]325=80+75m[/tex]
[tex]245=75m[/tex]
[tex]\frac{245}{75}=m[/tex]
[tex]3.266=m[/tex]
Thus,the first month in which Jordan will have saved enough money to buy the laptop is Month 4.
