Answer:

11 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

57.5=8+4.5x

49.5=4.5x

11 = x

Answer:

11 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

We know she has $8 already and needs to reach $57.50, so we can remove $8 from the total. then we just need to divive the remaining amount by her weekly payment.

57.50 - 8 = 49.50

49.50 / 4.50 = 11
