hmm, so the first week, she save $2. then she plan on saving $3 from the second week and so on.
week 1: $2
week 2: $3 (5.00)
week 3: $3 (8.00)
week 4: $3 (11.00)
week 5: $3 (14.00)
week 6: $3 (17.00)
week 7: $3 (20.00)
hmm so if the question is asking when she will start saving 20.00 each week then it would be 7 but im not too sure, the wording for the question is rather confusing to me.

Including the week that she saved two dollars: 7 weeks
Not including the week she saved two dollars: 6 weeks
Its a simple equation:
20-2=18 (that’s her goal minus what she saved in the first week)
18/3=6 (that’s how much more she has to save divided by what she saves each week)
