Answer:

To find: After how many months of saving do Sam and Frank have the same amount in their accounts and how much do they have in their accounts at this time

From the graph,

x axis represents number of months,

axis represents Amount saved.

The red graph represents the amount saved by Sam over the number of months

The blue graph represents the amount saved by Frank over the number of months

To find the intersection point of the two graphs.

The intersection point is (4,80)

After 4 months Sam and Frank saved $80.

Hence we get that,

After 4 months, Sam and Frank have the same amount in their accounts. They have $80 in their accounts.

Answer is: After 4 months, Sam and Frank have the same amount in their accounts. They have $80 in their accounts.
