Samuel earns $30 per week for mowing grass on Mondays. He also spends $8 per week on comic books each Saturday. Samuel checks his account balance each Sunday and Wednesday. Starting at $0 on the first Sunday, write a sequence showing the amount of money Samuel has each time he checks his account balance. Assuming he does not spend his money on anything other than comic books, how long will it take Samuel to save enough money to buy a $200 bike?
