Ayan has $48 andis saving $10 per week and Gemma has $300 and is spending $8 per week. When will they both have the same amount of money? ​

Sagot :

Answer:

14 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write as an equation with x the number of weeks Ayan and Gemma's money:

-> Ayan's money: 48+10x because every week he wins 10 more dollars

-> Gemma's money 300-8x

Finally just solve the equation for x where ayan's money = gemma's money so :

48+10x=300-8x

add 8x on both side: 48+18x=300

substract 48 on both side to isolate x : 18x =252

devide by 18 on both side : x=14
