    Answer: 1) B. m = 100 w + 10,000

    2) 20 weeks

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1) Here w represents the number of weeks Vic's car is driven.

    Since, In one week he drives = 100 miles,

    Therefore, In w weeks he drives = 100 w,

    Also, the car has already driven 1000 miles.

    Thus, the total distance covered by him in w week = 100 w + 10,000

    ⇒ Option B is correct.

    2) Let in w weeks car is driven 12,000 miles,

    Therefore, 100 w + 10,000 = 12,000

    100 w = 2000

    w = 20 weeks,

    He will drive 12000 miles in 20 weeks.

    ⇒ Option A is correct.
