They need to babysit for 10 hours to have same money each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

On Thursday;

Charges = $3 per hour

Initial fee = $40

let x be the number of hours.

T(x) = 3x+40

On Friday;

Charges = $4 per hour

Initial fee = $30

F(x)= 4x+30

The cost will be same when;

T(x) = F(x)

$3x+40=4x+30\\40-30=4x-3x\\10=x\\x=10$

They need to babysit for 10 hours to have same money each day.
