Question

How much weeks would I need to save up to get to $1000 if I get 35 one week, then 45 the next week (Every week for chores I get 35 and 45 every other week)

Example: week 1: +35

Week 2: + 45

Week 3: +35

Week 4: + 45

Answer 1

12.857 aa 35 +12.222 as 25

Answer 2

26 weeks (6 months)

Explanation:

$35x + $45y = $1000

I don't know how to show the work but it would take 26 weeks to reach $1,040. That's exactly 6 months, so half a year.
