Answer:

11 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 85 and can save 29 each week. This must be greater than the cost of the tv

85 + 29 w > 395.50

Subtract 85 from each side

85 -85 + 29 w > 395.50-85

29w >310.50

Divide by 29

29w/29 > 310.5/29

w >10.70689655

The number of weeks must be greater than 10.7 so rounding up

He must save for at least 11 weeks
