Assuming they start saving at 0 dollars
45=total=duanesavings+micksavings
duanesavings=confusing, I will explain
mick savings =amount saves per week times number of weeks
duane saves 5 dollars every other week, aka 2.5 dollars per 1 week
DS=2.5w
MS=2w
since they save at same time and at that week, when the weeks are equal (w=w), 45 it total
DS+MS=45
2.5w+2w=45
4.5w=45
divide by 4.5 both sides
w=10
10 weeks

Answer:
21 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the wind speed. Then the travel time is ...
400/(329 +w) = 352/(329 -w)
400(329 -w) = 352(329 +w)
(352+400)w = 329(400 -352)
w = (400 -352)/(400 +352)·329 = 48/752·329 = 21
The wind speed is 21 miles per hour.
