What is variable ?

Variable a symbol mainly a letter standing in for an unknown numerical value in an equation.

We have,

Money took out [tex]=\$ 135[/tex]

Money left in account [tex]=\$ 650[/tex]

So,

Total money in account [tex]=[/tex]  Money left in account [tex]+[/tex] Money took out

                                        [tex]=650+135[/tex]

So, Total money in account [tex]=\$ 785[/tex]

And,

If [tex]x[/tex] represents the variable then it would be for total money,

i.e.

     [tex]x=650+135[/tex]

Hence, we can say that Jane have [tex]\$ 785[/tex] in the account before she took out any money and variable [tex]x[/tex] would represent total money.
