Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

$62

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

• There were $450 dollars deposited into a bank account. The total amount after it's been deposited is $512.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

`\rightarrow x + 450 = 512\\\\\rightarrow x + 450 - 450 = 512 - 450\\\\\rightarrow x = 62`

⸻⸻⸻⸻

There was $62 before the $450 was deposited.
