Chau and Yoko each opened a savings account today. Chau opened his account with a starting amount of $460, and he is going to pu
t in $60 per month. Yoko opened her account with a starting amount of $530, and she is going to put in $50 per month. Let x be the number of months after today.
(a) For each account, write an expression for the amount of money in the account after x months.
Amount of money in Chau's account (In dollars) =
Amount of money in Yoko's account (in dollars) =
(b) Write an equation to show when the two accounts would have the same amount of money.
A1 and A2-since x is equivalent to number of months we multiply the number of months then add it to the original cost to get how much total you get in the account.
B-you add 50 to 530 and 60 to 460 until they equal the same amount in this case its 7 times.
