Steven wants to buy a $530 bicycle. Steven has no money saved, but will be able to deposit $35 into a

savings account when he receives his paycheck each Friday. However, before Steven can buy the bike, he
must give his sister $65 that he owes her. For how many weeks will Steven need to deposit money into
his savings account before he can pay back his sister and buy the bike?
