Hakeem puts $59 from each paycheck into his saving account. He gets paid every two weeks or 26 times per year. His goal is to save $1,500 this year. Will Hakeem reach his goal? Explain your answer using words, a model, and an equation.

Respuesta :

Answer: Yes, He will.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the amount he puts in each week = $ 59

In one year the number of weeks = 26

Thus, the total amount he can save in one year = [tex]59\times 26 = 1534[/tex]

According to the question,

His total saving in one year ≥ 1500

Since,    [tex]1534 > 1500[/tex]

Thus, he will reach his goal.
