Maeve currently has $130 and plans to earn more money each of the 8 weekends this summer. She wants at least $1,250 by the end of the summer. How much does she need to earn each weekend? Assume she earns the same amount each weekend. Solve her problem, and then graph the solution on a number line.(1 point)

Answer 1

First, we need to calculate how much Maeve needs to earn in total by the end of the summer. She currently has $130 and wants to have at least $1,250. This means she needs to earn 1250 - 130 = $<<1250-130=1120>>1120.
Next, we need to determine how much Maeve needs to earn each weekend. Since there are 8 weekends in the summer, she needs to earn a total of 1120 / 8 = $<<1120/8=140>>140 each weekend.
So, Maeve needs to earn $140 each weekend.

On a number line, we can plot the solution as follows:

-130 ------ 0 ----- 140 ------ 280 ------ 420 ------ 560 ------ 700 ------ 840 ------ 980 ------ 1120
