Jane has $50 and Ellis has $24. Jane is saving $4 per day and Ellis is saving $6 per day.
What equation represents how much money Jane will have in total after saving for d days?
J(d) = 4
J(d) = 50 + 24d
J(d) = 24 + 50d
J(d) = 50 + 4d
What equation represents how much money Ellis will have in total after saving for d days?
E(d) = 6
E(d) = 24 + 6d
E(d) = 30d
E(d) = 6 + 24d
What equation would be used to find out how many it will take for Jane and Ellis to have the same amount of money saved?
50 + 4d = 24 + 6d
54d = 30d
4d = 6d
This cannot be determined with the information given
After the amount of time found above, how much will Jane and Ellis each have saved?
54
66
90
102

After the amount of time found above, Jane and Ellis will each have $54 saved.

This is calculated by substituting the number of days (d) found in the previous question (12 days) into the equation for Jane and Ellis:

Jane: J(12) = 50 + 4(12) = 50 + 48 = $98
Ellis: E(12) = 24 + 6(12) = 24 + 72 = $98

Therefore, after 12 days, both Jane and Ellis will have $98 saved.

I apologize for the confusion. Let me clarify:

1. The equation to represent how much money Jane will have after saving for d days is J(d) = 50 + 4d. This means that Jane will have $50 to start with and will save $4 per day.

2. The equation to represent how much money Ellis will have after saving for d days is E(d) = 24 + 6d. This means that Ellis will have $24 to start with and will save $6 per day.

3. To find out how many days it will take for Jane and Ellis to have the same amount of money saved, we need to set their total savings equal to each other. So the equation would be:
50 + 4d = 24 + 6d
Solving this equation will give us the number of days it will take for them to have the same amount saved.

4. After we find the number of days, we can substitute that value back into either Jane or Ellis's equation to find out how much money they will each have saved. In this case, we found that it will take 12 days for Jane and Ellis to have the same amount saved. Substituting d=12 into Jane's equation: J(12) = 50 + 4(12) = $98. Substituting d=12 into Ellis's equation: E(12) = 24 + 6(12) = $96.

So, after 12 days, Jane will have $98 saved, and Ellis will have $96 saved. I hope this clarifies things! Let me know if you have any more questions.

After 12 days, Jane will have saved $98, and Ellis will have saved $96.
Answered by GPT 3.5
Based on the provided answer options:

- Jane will have $98 saved after 12 days
- Ellis will have $96 saved after 12 days

So the closest option would be 102, which represents the total amount they will have saved together after 12 days.

I apologize for the previous errors. Let's reevaluate:

After 12 days, Jane will have saved: J(12) = 50 + 4(12) = 50 + 48 = $98
After 12 days, Ellis will have saved: E(12) = 24 + 6(12) = 24 + 72 = $96

Therefore, after 12 days, Jane will have $98 saved, and Ellis will have $96 saved. So, none of the provided answer options (54, 66, 90, 102) represent the amount they will have each saved after 12 days.
