Respuesta :

lillyvong13, this is the solution:

Cost of the ticket to a New York Jets game = $ 225

Savings up to now = $ 18

Difference = 225-18 = 207

Number of weeks = 9

Let x to represent the amount of money Gary must save each week for buying the ticket, as follows:

x = 207/9

x = 23

Gary must save $ 23 at the end of 9 weeks to have enough money to buy the ticket
