    The equation would be y = 25x + 50

    In order to find this equation, we need to know how much the gift from her grandparents was. To do so, we have to find out how much she's saved from dog walking.

    Since she saves $25 a month for 7 months, we can find the total amount as:

    25*7 = 175

    Then we can subtract that from the total she has saved to find the amount for the gift.

    225 - 175 = 50

    Finally, we put the amount per month in the equation with the gift as the y intercept to create the equation above.
