To plot a graph representing the amount of money Jillian has saved from the beginning until she has saved enough for her trip, we can follow these steps:

1. **Determine how much more Jillian needs:**
- Jillian needs $185 and currently has $65.
- Amount still needed = $185 - $65 = $120.

2. **Determine how many weeks it will take to save enough:**
- Jillian saves $12 each week.
- Weeks needed = $120 / $12 = 10 weeks.

3. **Calculate the total amount saved over time:**
- At the beginning (week 0), she has $65.
- Each week, she will add $12 to her total.
- The amount of money Jillian has in each week can be expressed as:
- Week 0: $65
- Week 1: $65 + $12(1) = $77
- Week 2: $65 + $12(2) = $89
- Week 3: $65 + $12(3) = $101
- Week 4: $65 + $12(4) = $113
- Week 5: $65 + $12(5) = $125
- Week 6: $65 + $12(6) = $137
- Week 7: $65 + $12(7) = $149
- Week 8: $65 + $12(8) = $161
- Week 9: $65 + $12(9) = $173
- Week 10: $65 + $12(10) = $185

4. **Create a table for plotting:**

| Week | Total Money ($) |
|------|-----------------|
| 0 | 65 |
| 1 | 77 |
| 2 | 89 |
| 3 | 101 |
| 4 | 113 |
| 5 | 125 |
| 6 | 137 |
| 7 | 149 |
| 8 | 161 |
| 9 | 173 |
| 10 | 185 |

5. **Plotting the graph:**
- The x-axis will represent the number of weeks (from 0 to 10).
- The y-axis will represent the total amount of money saved (from $65 to $185).
- Plot the points corresponding to the data in the table above and connect them with a line to illustrate the increase in savings over time.

If you want to plot this graph using software or by hand, you can use the points to create a linear segment that reflects Jillian's savings growth over the specified time. The graph will show a straight line starting at $65 and sloping upwards, reaching $185 at week 10.

You should mark the following points on the graph:

- **(0, 65)** - This represents the amount of money Jillian has when she starts saving.
- **(1, 77)** - This is the amount after 1 week of saving.
- **(2, 89)** - This is the amount after 2 weeks of saving.
- **(3, 101)** - This is the amount after 3 weeks of saving.
- **(4, 113)** - This is the amount after 4 weeks of saving.
- **(5, 125)** - This is the amount after 5 weeks of saving.
- **(6, 137)** - This is the amount after 6 weeks of saving.
- **(7, 149)** - This is the amount after 7 weeks of saving.
- **(8, 161)** - This is the amount after 8 weeks of saving.
- **(9, 173)** - This is the amount after 9 weeks of saving.
- **(10, 185)** - This is the amount after 10 weeks of saving (when she has enough for the trip).

These points will help you plot the graph accurately!
