Answer:

3 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

expected amount =$200

cash already at hand=$80

savings per week=$40

let the number of weeks be x

Step two:

the linear function for the situation is the same as the equation of a straight line

y=mx+c------1

200=4x+80

solve for x

200-80=40x

120=40x

divide both sides  by 4

x=120/40

x= 3 weeks

Chandler will save for 3 weeks
