Kinsey must save $72 per month to achieve her goalKinsey must save $75 per month to achieve her goalKinsey will not be able to achieve her goal.cd

Respuesta :

The total amount she has to save can be calculated as:

[tex]60\frac{\$}{\text{month}}\cdot16\text{ months}=\$960[/tex]

After 11 months, she has saved $600.

So she has 16-11=5 months to save and needs to save 960-600=$ 360 to achieve her goal.

Then, we know that she has to save an average of 360/5=72 dollars
