Carter wants to buy a new movie for $25 he already has $11 dollars saved and his mom will give him $2 for each chore he does what is the least amount of chores Carter will have to do in order to save enough money to buy the movie
11 + 2x = 25 where x is the minimum number of chores needed 2x = 25 - 11 2x = 14 x = 14/2 = 7 So Carter has to do at least 7 chores to save enough money to buy the movie
