Christian has $1200 set aside in a savings account and earns $400 each week. If Christian donates $200 to charity, and spends $410 each week, how many weeks can he continue to spend without running out of money?
1200 + 400w = 200 + 410w
1200 - 400w = -200 + 410w
1200w - 400 = 200w - 410
1200 + 410w = 200 + 400w
