Dennis wants to save $189 for a trip to an amusement park. He sets aside $14 of his allowance at the end of each week. How many weeks will it take him to save enough money for the whole trip?

x = 13.5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he wants to save $189 in total, that will be on one side of the equation by itself. You have to set this up in a y = mx + b equation. The y will be the 189. Since the word "each" goes with the number 14, that will be your m value. There is no value for b.

189 = 14x is your equation. The only step after setting up the equation is to divide 189 by 14. This gives you 13.5. Dennis will have to save up for 13.5 weeks.
