janet earns $16 per week for doing chores around the house. write and solve an equation that determines how many weeks she needs to do chores to earn $12

16x = 12 where x is the number of weeks she works, x = 3/4 of a week

Step-by-step explanation:

If Janet gets 16 dollars a week, then 16 times the number of weeks she works is the amount she makes. If x is the number of weeks she works, this would be 16x. Since she is trying to get $12 your equation would be 16x = 12.

Solving,

16x = 12

divide both sides of the equation by 16

x = 12/16 = 3/4
