<span>So we want to know how much money will Chuy save if he saves an exact amount of money for the new TV each week for 27 weeks and will he be able to buy the TV worth 1350$ with the saved money. First lets calculate what amount of money does he save on the weekly bases: 440$/8=55$. So he is saving 55$ per week. Lets see how much will he save in 27 weeks: 55$*27=1485$. Since the TV costs 1350$ and Chuy will save 100$ more in 27 weeks the corresct answer is c. </span>
