To determine the latest time activity A can be finished without delaying any activity, we need to find the critical path which is the path with the longest duration. 
The activities on the critical path are A-B-E-F-G-H, with a total duration of 17 weeks. 
Therefore, the latest time activity A can be finished without delaying any activity is 8 weeks, which is the latest finish time of activity H. 
Thus, the correct choice is C) 8.
