Answer: hopefully this is what you need
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Inequality form:
X < -6
Interval Notation:
(-♾, -6)
Standard form
24x10^3=24000
11.5x+22 equal to -13x+218
11.5x+22=-13x+218
Now you have an equation. Solve for x:
11.5x+22+13x=-13x+13x+218 (add 13x to both sides)
24.5x+22=218
24.5x+22-22=218-22 (subtract 22 from both sides)
24.5x=196
x=196÷24.5
x=8
After 8 weeks their balances would be the same.
Their balances will be:
11.5x+22=11.5(8)+22=114$
and
-13x+218=-13(8)+218=114$
So, 114$ each.
Hope this was helpful.
