The line graph shows Miley's savings progress over time. Given that every point follows the same consistent saving pattern of $25 per week, we can calculate the number of weeks it will take for her to save enough to buy the boots.
So far, the graph indicates:
- At week 2, she saved $50
- At week 3, she saved $75
- At week 4, she saved $100
Since she saves $25 each week, after week 4, she will save:
- $125 by week 5 (because $100 + $25 = $125)
- $150 by week 6 (because $125 + $25 = $150)
Miley needs $150 for the boots, and she will reach this amount after 6 weeks of saving $25 weekly.
Therefore, it will take Miley 6 weeks to save enough money to buy the boots.
Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A line graph shows time in weeks on the x-axis and total in dollars on the y-axis. The x-axis ranges from 0 to 8 in increments of 1. The y-axis ranges from 0 to 160 in increments of 20. A line starts at the origin and passes through plotted points left parenthesis 2 comma 50 right parenthesis; left parenthesis 3 comma 75 right parenthesis; and left parenthesis 4 comma 100 right parenthesis.
Miley is saving for a new pair of boots. They cost $150 . Every week, she puts $25 into her savings account. Based on the graph, state the number of weeks it will take for her to save enough money to buy the boots.
