Let x = the amount Kris earns each weekend. Then

190 + 8x ≥ 1625.

Solve: 8x ≥ 1625 − 190 = 1435, so x ≥ 1435/8 = 179.375.

So Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend (rounded to the nearest cent). The correct choice is: "Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal."
