First, let's write two expressions, letting x= the number of months which have elapsed:

Bill: 120 + 10x
Phil: 150 + 4x

If we set them equal to each other, then solve for x, that will be the number of months where their weights equal each other:

120+10x = 150 + 4x   [starting equation]
-120  -4x    -120 -4x    [ subtract 120 from both sides, and 4x from both sides, to isolate the term with the variable]

<u>6x</u> = <u>30</u>     [divide both sides by 5]
 5      5

x=6. They will weigh the same in six months.
