you begin with $25 in a savings account and $50 in the checking account. Each week you deposit $5 into savings and $10 into checking. After how many weeks is the amount in checking twice the amount in savings? write and solve an equation.

5 weeks because 5 into 25$ each week and 5 weeks means $50 and since 10$ into 50 each week in 5 weeks it will be $100. $50 is half of $100 welcome ;)

Savings Account:
$5×5 weeks=$25
25+25=50

Checking Account:
$10×5 weeks=$50
50+50=100

Answer: 5 weeks

Hope this helps!
