To solve this problem, we can set up an equation: $50 + $8x = $450. Here, x represents the number of weeks it takes Shannon to save $450.

Subtracting $50 from both sides of the equation, we have: $8x = $400.

Dividing both sides of the equation by $8, we get: x = 50.

So, it takes Shannon 50 weeks to save $450. The correct answer is 50 weeks.
