At the beginning of the year, Alyssa had $100 in savings and saved an additional $7 each week thereafter. Colton started the year with $55 and saved $10 every week. Let AA represent the amount of money Alyssa has saved tt weeks after the beginning of the year and let CC represent the amount of money Colton has saved tt weeks after the beginning of the year. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of t,t, and determine the amount of money Alyssa and Colton have saved in the week that they have the same amount of money saved.

Sagot :

The equation that represents the amount saved by Alyssa after tt weeks is AA = 100 + $7tt

The equation that represents the amount saved by Colton after tt weeks is CC = $55 + $10tt

The amount they would have when they have same amount of money is $205.

What equation represents the total amount saved?

The total amount saved: inital amount + (amount saved per week x total number of weeks

AA = 100 + $7tt

CC = $55 + $10tt

What would be the amount when they have the same amount of money?

$55 + $10tt = 100 + $7tt

Combine similar terms and solve for tt

100 - 55 = 10tt - 7tt

45 = 3tt

tt = 15 weeks

100 + $7(15) = $205
