Question

Caitlyn is saving for vacation. She already has $38 and plans to save $18 per week until she reaches her goal of $524. Caitlyn’s total savings, s, can be determined using this equation, where w represents the number of weeks she saves.

s=18w+38
How many weeks will Caitlyn need to save to reach her goal of $524?

Answer 1

Answer:

27.88 can be rounded to whatever the question wants you to, coz it needs to be a whole no.---> so I would say 28 weeks, but it depends on what the question asks

Step-by-step explanation:

18w+38= should equal to $540

rephrasing this in a mathematical way would be-

18w+38=$540

18w=$540-38

18w=502

w=502/18

w=27.88
