To determine the amount of money Sammie had in her account initially, let's denote that initial amount by [tex]\( c \)[/tex].
Given:
- After withdrawing \[tex]$25, Sammie had \$[/tex]100 remaining.
This situation can be expressed with an equation. Since Sammie took \[tex]$25 out of her account, the operation performed on her initial amount \( c \) was subtraction:
\[ c - 25 \]
According to the problem, after performing this subtraction, she was left with \$[/tex]100:
[tex]\[ c - 25 = 100 \][/tex]
Thus, the equation that represents this scenario is:
[tex]\[ c - 25 = 100 \][/tex]
To find [tex]\( c \)[/tex], we add 25 to both sides of the equation:
[tex]\[ c - 25 + 25 = 100 + 25 \][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[ c = 125 \][/tex]
Therefore, the correct equation that can be used to find the amount [tex]\( c \)[/tex], which Sammie had in her account before she took the money out, is:
[tex]\[ c - 25 = 100 \][/tex]
