Veronica saving money to buy a saddle for her horse that cost $175. she plans to save $10 the first month and then increase the amount she saved by $5 each month after the first month. how many months will it take her to save $175

Take how much money she needs, which is $175. Subtract $10 from that. You get $165. Now divide that by $5. $165 divided by $5 is 33. That's 33 months. BUT, we also have to include the first month (because that month is saving money too, $10). So that month (1) plus the others (33) equals 34 months.

So, the 34 months.

God bless!
