Question

1. Matthew decided that he would like to spend his summer working and saving his money. He begins the summer with no money in his account, but he is getting paid $160.00 per week to mow lawns. His brother Dillon began the summer with $345.00 and has decided that he will referee soccer games. He will make $45.00 per week. After how many weeks will Matthew and Dillon have the same amount of money?​

Answer 1

the anwer is no matthew will not have the same amount of money

Answer 2

Answer: 3 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation: Matthew's pay goes up by $160 a week, so that's y=160x.

Dillon's pay is $45 a week, but started out with $345. So, that's y=45x+345.

So, they will have the same amount of money after 3 weeks.
