Molly is saving for a new pair of boots that 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 on the graph the why goes from 0 to 160 it goes from 0 to 8 with points at 50 75 and 100

Answer 1

To determine how many weeks it will take for Molly to save enough money for the boots based on the information provided, we can set up the following calculation:

Molly saves $25 each week. The cost of the boots is $150. To find out how many weeks she needs to save to reach $150, we can use the formula:

\[ \text{Number of weeks} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Savings per week}} = \frac{150}{25} = 6 \]

So, it will take Molly 6 weeks to save enough money to buy the boots.

In terms of the graph you described, where the y-axis (vertical) goes from 0 to 160 and the x-axis (horizontal) goes from 0 to 8, you would look for the point where the line representing her savings ($25 per week) reaches $150 on the y-axis. This will occur at the 6-week mark on the x-axis.
