8 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Valerie want's to buy a backpack which costs $57.65

Also given that she saves $7.25 a week

Let the number of weeks she saves the money be x

For her to buy the backpack the following inequality should be satisfied

amount saved > cost of the item

The amount saved =

7.25x > 57.65

x > 7.95

Since x is an  integer we have x = 8

Therefore she has to save 8 weeks to buy the item
