Answer:

$250

Step-by-step explanation:

8=20

12=30

So waht you do is you know that 4 weeks is $10 so 10 / 4 = 2.5 and 2.50 x 100 = 250.

Answer:

On week 100 she has $250.

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relation has the form

y = kx

Let x = week number and y = amount of money in the account.

We use one of the known times and mounts to find the value of k.

At week 8 she had $20.00, so for x = 8, y = 20.

y = kx

20 = k * 8

k = 20/8

k = 2.5

The proportional relation is

y = 2.5x

Now for any number of weeks, x, you can find the amount of money, y, using the equation above.

On week 100, x = 100.

y = 2.5x

y = 2.5(100)

y = 250

Answer: On week 100 she has $250.
