Answer:

5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 9 an hr for 30 hrs.....(9 * 30) = $270

they deduct $ 27 from her weekly check

so she clears (270 - 27) = $ 243 per week

she wants to get to $ 1200...

1200 / 243 = 4.94 weeks......we are gonna have to round up to 5 weeks because 4 weeks is just a little short.

Robin have to work 5 weeks to save money to buy new computer.

Saving is the portion of income not spent or set aside for future use on current expenditures.

Now, income of robin = $9 per hour

Since, She works 30 hours a week.

Therfore, total income of the week = $9 * 30

⇒total income of the week = $270

Amount deducted per week = $27

So, amount saved in a week = $270 - $27

⇒amount saved in a week = $243

Now the cost of new computer = $1200

So, number of weeks required to save the money = $1200/$243

⇒ number of weeks required = 4.9 weeks ≈ 5 weeks

Hence,Robin have to work 5 weeks to save money to buy new computer.
