Converting Real World Situations into Equations Using Models

This lesson teaches how to convert real-world situations into equations using models. It begins with an introduction to variables, explaining their roles as independent and dependent variables. The core lesson uses Victor's savings plan to demonstrate creating an equation, 5x+13=y, where x represents weeks and y the total savings. The lesson concludes with a breakdown of the equation's components and a summary of the key concepts.

What does the equation 5x + 13 = y represent in Victor's savings scenario?
