Kaitlyn saves $6 each week. After correctly carrying out the Solve step of the five-step problem-solving plan, which solution should you arrive at to find the number weeks she must continue to save until she has a total of $60?

I dont know anything about the 5 step problem solving plan...

but ur equation is : y = 6x...where y is total saved and x is number of weeks.

when she has a total of 60 bucks....so y = 60
60 = 6x
60/6 = x
10 = x....so it would take her 10 weeks <==

Answer:

10 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent number of weeks.

We have been given that Kaitlyn saves $6 each week. So the amount saved in w weeks would be [tex]6w[/tex] dollars.

Since Kaitlyn wants to save $6. This means that amount saved in w weeks should be equal to $60.

[tex]6w=60[/tex]

Let us solve for w by dividing both sides by 6.

[tex]\frac{6w}{6}=\frac{60}{6}[/tex]

[tex]w=10[/tex]

Therefore, Kaitlyn must continue to save for 10 weeks to have a total of $60.
