Since 150 is the total and 12 is per week you can actuality do this equation

T= Total,150$ W=Amount saved,12$


150=12*X or 150/12=X


While X = 12.5 Weeks So, the correct answer
is 12.5 Weeks it can be stated As,

12 weeks 3 days 12 hours (X=12.5)

Answer 2

It will take her 13 weeks to save enough money for a trip to the Six Flags amusement park

Further explanation  

Comparison is an effort to compare two or more objects in terms of shape or size, or number  

Proportional Comparisons / Directly proportional are comparisons of two or more numbers where one number increases, the other numbers also increase at the same rate  

 Can be formulated  

$\displaystyle \frac {x1} {y1} = \frac {x2} {y2}$

 so that if:  

 x = 2  

 then  

$\displaystyle y ={ \frac {y} {x} \times \: 2}$

 While the reversal value comparison / inversely proportional is the comparison of two or more numbers where one number increases, the other number decreases in value  

or when one value decreases at the same rate that the other increases  

Can be formulated  

$\displaystyle \frac {x1} {y2} = \frac {x2} {y1}$

so that if:  

 x = 2  

 then  

$\displaystyle y = \frac {x} {y} \times \: 2$

Known  

Michelle wants to save $150

she saves $12 each week

Asked  

the number of weeks needed to save money

Answer

every weeks , she save $12 or we can make equation 1:

1 weeks = $12

the amount of money needed to travel to the six flags amusement park

= $150

we can make equation 2

? weeks = $150

Because this includes Proportional Comparisons / Directly proportional,

from two equation above , we can make comparison :

$\displaystyle \frac{1\:weeks}{\ 12} =\frac{x\:weeks}{\ 150}$

$\displaystyle x\:weeks=\frac{\ 150\times1\:weeks}{\ 12}$

$\large{\boxed{x\:weeks= 12.5}}$

or we round up to :

$\large{\boxed{\bold{13\:weeks}}}$
