Answer:

  1. Sequon has more money after 4 weeks.
  2. It would take 5 weeks for their savings accounts to be equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniel

Daniel starts with $50 and each week he adds $8. To find out the amount he has in any given week, the following formula would work:

= 50 + 8x

The x is the number of weeks and is multiplied by 8 because the amount of money he has increase by 8 every week.

After 4 weeks he would have:

= 50 + (8 * 4)

= 50 + 32

= $82

Saquon

Applying the same formula:

= 65 + 5x

After 4 weeks:

= 65 + (5 * 4)

= 65 + 20

= $85

Saquon has more money after 4 weeks.

<u>Number of weeks it would take for both of them to have the same amount.</u>

To find this out, equate both formulas and solve for x.

50 + 8x = 65 + 5x

8x - 5x = 65 - 50

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5 weeks

<em>At 5 weeks they will both have:</em>

<em>50 + 8 * 5 = $90</em>

<em>65 + 5 * 5 = $90</em>
