Andre and Elena are each saving money. Andre starts with $100 in his savings account and adds $5 per week. Elena starts with $10 in her savings account and adds $20 each week. a. After four weeks, who has more money in their savings account? Explain how you know.

Andre has more money in his savings account.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to have equations for both Andre and Elena. Andre starts with $100 in his savings and adds $5 per week.  Based on this, Andre's equation will be y = 5x + 100. Elena starts with $10 and adds $20 per week. Based on this, Elena's equation will be y = 20x + 10.

Andre: y = 5x + 100

Elena: y = 20x + 10

We have to figure out who will have more money in their account after 4 weeks. To do that, we plug in 4 into x because x is the number of weeks.

Andre: y = 5(4) + 100

           y = 20 + 100

           y = 120

Andre has $120 after 4 weeks.

Elena: y = 20(4) + 10

          y = 80 + 10

          y = 90

Elena has $90 after 4 weeks.

Which is greater? $120 or $90? That's right, its $120. Andre has more money in his savings account. I hope this helps!
