Answer:

4 weekdays and 2 weekends.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 days.

x = weekdays

y = weekends

7x = amount with weekdays

12y = amount with weekends

7x + 12y = 52, total

x + y = 6, amount of days

solve double variable equation

x = 6 - y, plug in to 1st equation

7(6 - y) + 12y = 52

42 - 7y + 12y = 52

5y = 10

y = 2 weekends

2 + x = 6

x = 4 weekdays
