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.
Shannon opens a savings account with $50. Each week after that she deposits $8 into her account. How many weeks does it take her to save $450?
