Given: Earning of Arthur in three weeks = $136
Let x be the money he earn in one more week.
If he needs at least $189 to buy the new coat that he wants for school.
Then it gives the inequality
Subtract 136 from both sides of the inequality, we get

Hence, Arthur must earn $ 53 in the next week.

Answer:

$45.33 AND it will take him 1.16 more weeks to get $189 for the new jacket.

Step-by-step explanation:

take his earnings from 3 weeks (136) and divide it by 3 to get his earnings from one week.

136/3= 45.33r

not sure if you need this but I'll go above and beyond here...

To find how many weeks it will take him to get the jacket you subtract 136 from 189 to get the amount left he needs to earn ($53).

Then you take 53/45.33 and you get 1.16.

So! it will take him 1.16 more weeks to earn the jacket!

If this helped, PLEASE give me brainliest! <3
