Answer:

67hours hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

she works $30 for 1 hour

in 40 hours she will earn 40*30= $1200

this means that a week she earns $1200

let the number of  weeks she needs to work be x

40x*(30)<=2000

1200x<=2000

x<=2000/1200

x<=1.66

the number of hours in a week is 40

40*1.66=66.66

67hours

hence she must work for at least 67hours
