The answer to the first part of your question is 9
as for the second part 36/4 (which is 9 btw) then subtract 2 I answered this one the best I could (let me know if I'm wrong)
(i just don't have to much time on my hands because I have homework myself)
1. is 8
2. is 4
Subtract them by the percentage
X=-3
It won't let me do short anwser
Solution
Provided :-
• I have $138
• I save $12 per week
• Friend have $ 98
• He saves $17 per week
Let the number of weeks required to have same balance be x
→ 138 + 12x = 98 + 17x
→ 138 - 98 = 17x - 12x
→ 40 = 5x
→ x = 8
So we need 8 weeks
