Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Jim has currently balance=$1250

Sally has currently balance=$1400

Jim deposits money per week=$27.50

Sally deposits per week=$20

We have to find how many weeks  they will have the same amount of money.

Let w be the week .After w week they have same amount

According to question

[tex]1250+27.50 w=1400+20w[/tex]

[tex]27.50 w-20 w=1400-1250[/tex]

[tex]7.5 w=150[/tex]

[tex]w=\frac{150}{7.5}=20[/tex]

After 20 weeks , they will have the same amount of money.
