J=(43)/(12)w+1814
M=(25)/(6)w+1744

To determine when John (J) and Mario (M) will have theirs college funds equal:


J=M
(43)/(12)w+1814\text{ =}(25)/(6)w+1744

To determine the number of weeks we clear the variable w:


(43)/(12)w-(25)/(6)w=1744-1814
-0.58w=-70
w=(-70)/(-0.58)=120.68\approx121\text{ }It will take 121 weeks approx.
