Answer:
a.) y= 75x+25
b.) y= 25x+225
c.) Their account balances will be the same in 4 months and they'll have $325.
Step-by-step explanation:
For A and B: The variable is x which is the amount of months then add the initial amounts without a variable and equal it to y which is the amount in all.
For Rowan, they are saving $75 per month. This is where our variable goes and then we add the intial $25 dollars. The equation is y= 75x+25.
For Reem, they are saving $25 per month. This is where our variable goes and then we add the intial $225 dollars. The equation is y= 25x+225
C. You have to set the equations equal to each other and then solve for x.
75x+25 = 25x+225
Subtract 25 from each side
75x=25x+200
Subtract 25x from each side
50x=200
Divide each side by 50
X=4
<em>For the amount they'll have, just plug 4 into one of the equations. </em>
Rowan : y=75(4)+25
y=325
Reem: y=25(4)+225
y=325
