Rachel is saving money to buy an outfit for a party she has already saved $17 she is earning $5 each month for being a mother's helper to the family next door how many weeks until she has in 39 points $50 to buy the outfit from the store consider she is only paid for working a full week not a 1/2 week.

18 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of months she worked since she is paid monthly be represented by x

The Equation to solve this question is given as:

$17 + 5 × x = $39.50

17 + 5x = 39.50

5x = 39.50 - 17

5x = 22.50

x = 22.50/5

x = 4.5 months

We are asked to calculate how many weeks.

Hence we convert the number of months to weeks

1 month = 4 weeks

4.5 months = x

4.5 × 4 = 18 weeks

Therefore, she works for 18 weeks
