Morgan started the year with $615 in the bank and is saving $25 per week. kendall started with $975 and is spending $15 per week. when will they both have the same amount of money in the bank?

You can represent Morgan's scenario with the expression, 25w + 615, and you can represent Kendall's scenario with the expression, 15w + 975.  To find out when they both have the same amount of money in their accounts, you set them equal to each other and solve for w:   25w + 615 = 15w + 975 25w = 15w + 360 10w = 360 w = 36   Morgan and Kendall will have the same amount of money after 36 weeks.
