    Step-by-step explanation:

    The amount of money in the savings account can be modeled as ...

    64.96 + 69.80n

    where n is the number of deposited checks. We want this value to be at least 400, so we must solve ...

    64.96 + 69.80n ≥ 400

    69.80n ≥ 335.04

    n ≥ 335.04/69.80

    n ≥ 4.8

    You must deposit 5 paychecks to reach your goal.
