Answer 1

Answer:

20 weeks

We are given the following information:

Annabella borrowed $159.65

She pays back $8 every week till all the money is paid back

The number of weeks it will take her to repay the money is shown below:

$\begin{gathered} no.of.weeks=\frac{total.amount.borrowed}{amount.repaid.per.week} \\ no.of.weeks=\frac{159.65}{8} \\ no.of.weeks=19.95625\approx20 \\ no.of.weeks=20weeks \\ \\ \therefore no.of.weeks=20weeks \end{gathered}$

Therefore, it will Annabella about 20 weeks to repay all the money she owes Kendra
