1)  How many weeks will Jake and Seth be equal? set the equations equal to each other and solve for x:

5x + 85 = 20x + 40

45 = 15x

<u><em>x = 3 weeks</em></u>

2)  How much money will that be? plug x = 3 back into the equation to solve for y:

Jake:  5(3) + 85 = $100
Seth:  20(3) + 40 = $100

<u><em>answer is $100</em></u>
