    S=number of swim lessons

    A.) The equation is 237 = 402-15s

    237 = 402 - 15s

    -402 = - 402

    -165 = - 15s

    /-15 = / -15

    11 = s

    B.) 11 swim lessons.

    C.) 0 = 237 - 19s

    -237 = - 237

    -237 = - 19s

    /-19 = / -19

    12.47368 = s

    She can pay for 12 more swim lessons and will have some money left in her account.
