Answer:

25 + 8.50w ≥ 122

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount saved per week = $8.50

Cost of phone = $122

Starting amount = $25

Minimum Number of whole weeks (w) Sébastien will need to save :

Starting amount + (weekly saving * number of weeks) ≥ 122

25 + 8.50w ≥ 122

8.50w ≥ 122 - 25

8.50w ≥ 97

w ≥ 97/8.50

w ≥ 11.4117

Number of whole weeks = 12
