Answer:

  • S = 30 +16t
  • J = 55 +11t
  • $110

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept in the equation is the initial amount in savings. The slope is the amount saved per week.

  S = 30 +16t

  J = 55 +11t

__

These are equal when ...

  30 +16t = 55 +11t

  5t = 25 . . . . . . . . subtract 30+11t

  t = 5

  S = 30 +16·5 = 30 +80 = 110

After 5 weeks, both Savannah and Jacob will have saved $110.
