Answer:

write and solve an equality for this situation. I have 5 dollars I saved 2 dollars each week. How many weeks do I need to save until I have at least 50 dollars... 23 weeks

Step-by-step explanation: Because

23 x 2 = 46 + 5 = 51 so 5+2x > 50

lol I spent like 5 min on this question.

22 weeks because you already have 5 dollars so the other answer is wrong
