Answer 1

Answer:

Part b Sasha increases the amount she saves each week to $85. Including the $768 she saved in the first 12 weeks, Sasha now has $1,873.  Sasha saved $85 for 13 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sasha had saved $768 for 12 weeks.

Now, she has $1873 in her savings.

To get here, she has been saving $85.

So, we need to get the number of weeks she has been saving this for the amount to reach $1873

The amount saved after 12 weeks is:

= 1873 - 768 = $1105

She saves $85 each week

The number of weeks = 1105/85 = 13

So she saved $85 for 13 weeks to reach $1873
