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. 

1 answer

To determine the number of weeks it will take for Miley to save enough money for the boots, we can set up the equation based on her savings.

Miley saves $25 each week. If we let \( w \) be the number of weeks, then the total amount she saves after \( w \) weeks is given by:

\[ \text{Total Savings} = 25w \]

We want her savings to equal the cost of the boots, which is $150:

\[ 25w = 150 \]

Now, we can solve for \( w \):

\[ w = \frac{150}{25} = 6 \]

Therefore, it will take Miley 6 weeks to save enough money to buy the boots.
