Step-by-step explanation:

Alyssa starts with $40 and saves $10 each week. This can be written as:

= 40 + 10x

Bill has $24 and saves $12 each week. This can be written as:

= 24 + 12x

where, x = number of weeks

a. Bill will never have more money than Alyssa.

False.

From the 9th week, Bill will have more money than Alyssa. To check goes below.

Alyssa = 40 + 10x = 40 + 10(9) = 40 + 90 =$130

Bill = 24 + 12x = 24 + 12(9) = 24 + 108 = $132

b. Bill's savings can be represented by the equation = 12 + 24 where x is the number of weeks and y is his savings.

False.

Bill savings can be represented by:

= 24 + 12x

where, x = number of weeks

c. Alyssa and Bill will have the same amount of money at Week 6.

False.

Alyssa = 40 + 10x

= 40 + 10(6)

= 40 + 60

= $100

Bill = 24 + 12x

= 24 + 12(6)

= 24 + 72

= $96
