Question

Sophie and Marcos are each saving for new bicycles. So far, Sophie has $6 saved and can earn $5 per hour walking dogs. Marcos has $3 saved and can earn $6 per hour at his family's plant nursery. After how many hours of work will Sophie and Marcos have saved the same amount? What will that amount be? Use the system of equations below to complete the graph.
Sophie: y = 5x + 6
Marcos: y = 6x + 3

Answer 1

6+5=11+5=16+5=21
3+6=9+6=15+6=21
It will take Marco and Sophie 3 hours to get the same amount of money. The amount of money they will have will be $21.
