x = 1240-y can be used to model the situation where x is the amount earned in second week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total amount earned = D =  $1240

Amount earned in first week = y = $480

Let,

x be the amount earned in second week.

Therefore,

Total amount earned = Amount earned in 1st week + 2nd week amount

D = x + y

1240 = x + y

Solving for x;

[tex]x= 1240- y [/tex]

x = 1240-y can be used to model the situation where x is the amount earned in second week.
