Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money

we now that

<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1

and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2

</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks

the answer is 
4 weeks

Y = mx + c

If y = 4, and x = 0, then:

4 = -1 (0) + c

c = 4

If c = 4:

y = -1 (2) + 4

y = -2 +4

y = 2

If you plug in the different values of x in each equation, the answer should be:

2,0,-2
