New Jersey coast
Just one: The George Washington Bridge. New Jersey is also connected to New York City via the Bayonne and Verrazano Bridges. The Bayonne Bridge connects New Jersey to Staten Island, and the Verrazano connects Staten Island to Brooklyn. But this technically does not count, since you asked, "How many bridges connect Manhattan to New Jersey?" not, "How many bridges connect New York City to New Jersey?" Also, the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels connect Manhattan to New Jersey. But, obviously, tunnels aren't the same as bridges.
No, but you can go through Staten Island. You'd take the Bayonne Bridge from Bayonne, New Jersey, into Staten Island. You'll come off the bridge onto the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Expressway. Follow that until the road splits. Take a left onto the Staten Island Expressway. Follow the Staten Island Expressway to the Verrazano Bridge into Brooklyn.

Manhattan has at least 16 bridges that connect the island to neighboring areas. The George Washington Bridge, The Triborough Bridge, The Queensboro Bridge, The Williamsburgh Bridge, The Manhattan Bridge, The Brooklyn Bridge, The Willis Avenue Bridge, The Third Avenue Bridge, The Madison Avenue Bridge, The 145th Street Bridge, The Macombs Dam Bridge, The Washington Bridge, The Cross Bronx Expressway Overpass, The University Heights 207th Street Bridge, The Broadway Bridge, and The Henry Hudson Bridge. The Highbridge at 173rd street is no longer in use, but still spans the river. There are 2,027 bridges and tunnels overall in the New York City metro area.

Jersey Bridge was created in 1882.
Italian Giovanni da Verrazano
You can take the George Washington Bridge. The GWB connects New Jersey to Upper Manhattan. It traverses the Hudson River at Fort Lee, New Jersey, and around 181st Street in Manhattan. You can also take a detour through Staten Island and Brooklyn. The Bayonne Bridge connects New Jersey to Staten Island, and the Verrazano Bridge connects Staten Island to Brooklyn. Then you would take the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel into Manhattan.
Victory Bridge - New Jersey - was created in 1926.
