PLEASE HELP I NEED THE ANSWER
Jessie started a record collection with 8 records. Each week he added 3 records to his collection. Riley started her record collection with 23 records. Each week she gave away 2 records.
d) When will Jessie & Riley have the same number of records in their collection?
How many records will they each have at this time?
At three weeks both will have 17 the equation for jessie is (8+3x) the equation for riley is (23-2x). x is the amount of weeks. to find the answer yourself, take both equations and make them equal. ex. 8+3x=23-2x.
