Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -10x + 60

y = 5x + 10

5x + 10 = -10x + 60

5x + 10x = 60 - 10

15x = 50

x = 50/15 = 3 1/3 weeks <==== they will be the same in 3 1/3 weeks

y = 5x + 10                          y = -10x + 60

y = 5(10/3) + 10                   y = -10(10/3) + 60

y = 50/3 + 10                      y = -100/3 + 60

y = 50/3 + 30/3                  y = -100/3 + 180/3

y = 80/3 = 26.67                 y = 80/3 = 26.67

at that time, they will both have $ 26.67 <==
