Q. 1,000+250xTeresa currently has $1,000 in her bank account. The expression above models the amount of money in her account in x months if she deposits $250 into the account each month. Based on the expression, what is the amount, in dollars, Teresa will have in her account 6 months from now? (Ignore the $ symbol when entering your answer.)
Identify Amount and Deposit: Identify the initial amount and the monthly deposit.Teresa starts with $1,000 and deposits $250 each month.
Calculate Total Amount: Use the expression 1,000+250x to calculate the total amount after x months.Since we want to know the amount after 6 months, we substitute x with 6.1,000+250×6
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication part of the expression first, according to the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS). 250×6=1,500
Add Initial and Deposits: Add the initial amount to the total deposits after 6 months.1,000+1,500=2,500
