Answer:

Jackson should work at least 8 hours this week to achieve his target.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackson's hourly income = $25

His weekly spending budget = $130

Minimum amount to be pushed to the savings account = $50

So, minimum total amount Jackson should earn this week = 130 + 50 = 180

Number of hours to work this week = [tex]\frac{Minimum total amount}{hourly income}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{180}{25}[/tex]

= 8 rounded to next integer

Hence, Jackson should work at least 8 hours this week to achieve his target.
