Answer:

C) 5 weeks

Explanation:

Given :- Cost of bicycle = $80,

Current Savings = $35 and

Saves $10 per week

Additional money that is required to buy the bicycle = $80 - $35

= $45

If she saves $10 per week then the best number of weeks to save $45 is 5 weeks

(Savings in 5 weeks = $10 × 5 = $50)
