A new gaming chair costs $455.95. You have already saved $136.45 and earn $35.50 each week babysitting. Write and solve an equation to determine how many weeks, w, you must babysit to earn enough money to buy the new gaming chair.

35.5 + 136.45w = 455.95; w = 9
35.5w + 136.45 = 455.95; w = 9
35.5w − 136.45 = 455.95; w = 17
35.5w − 455.95 = 136.45; w = 17
