Hey!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution:

Let's say the paycheck is the integer (x)

After the first week she will earn 145 + x

After the second week she will earn 145 + (x + 145)

→ 145 + 145 + x

→ 290 + x

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

Using the solution above you can solve how much Mrs. Rodger will earn every other week using the integer above.

Hope This Helps :)
