Right click on the database you want to backup, Tasks, Backup. At the top there is a Script button.

I just did without too much attention and I got this script

BACKUP DATABASE [AdventureWorksDW2008R2] TO  DISK = N'C:\SQL DB Backups\All DBs\AdventureWorksDW2008R2.bak' 
WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT,  NAME = N'AdventureWorksDW2008R2-Full Database Backup', 
SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD,  STATS = 10
GO
