2.5 pts Each week 5 new office phones are installed in a major network company. At the beginning of March, 200 phones had already been installed. Write a linear equation to model this situation. Do not use spaces in the equation.

Use your equation if the company wanted to replace all phones in the building (500 total). How many weeks would it take to finish this project?



Sagot :

The linear equation formed is y = 200 +5x  and 60 weeks will be required to finish the project.

What is an Equation ?

A statement that relates two mathematical expressions by an equal sign is called an Equation.

It is given that

No. of phones Per week  installed in the office = 5

Let the no. of phones installed at the present week is given by y

and let x weeks have passed by before that

then the linear equation is formed as

y = 200 +5x

If the company wants to replace all the phones

Total phones = 500

No. of week required = ?

500 = 200+5x

300 = 5x

x = 60

Therefore 60 weeks will be required to finish the project.
