Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Carlos has $50 in his savings account. He deposits $100 on his birthday, and then another $25 every month.

To Find: Which equation can be used to find the number of months it would take him to reach a balance of $500?

Now wants to reach a balance of $500.

So, equation becomes:

                                    :    

Hence Equation can be used to find the number of months it would take him to reach a balance of $500 is    

2 5/8 is the final answer! : )

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10
