Maeve currently has $130, and she wants to earn at least $7,250 by the end of the summer. This means she needs to earn an additional $7,250 - $130 = $7120.
Since she plans to earn money over 8 weekends, she needs to earn $7120 / 8 = $<<7120/8=890>>890 each weekend.
To graph the solution on a number line, we can represent the distance (earnings each weekend) as units on the number line. We start at $130 and move 8 units (8 weekends) to the right to reach $130 + 8 * $890 = $7150.
The graph on the number line would look like this:
$------|------|------|------|------|------|------|------|------|----->
The vertical bar represents the $130 that Maeve currently has, and each horizontal bar represents $890 that she needs to earn each weekend. The number of horizontal bars indicates the number of weekends (8 in this case), and the final endpoint represents the total earnings of $7150.
