Answer:

After 8 days they will have the same account balance of 460 dollars.

Explanation:

Let: x = total number of days

y = balance of dollars

y = mx + b → m = difference of dollars each day

b = initial amount of dollars

Therefore:

Michael → y = 30x + 220 ... [1]

Sally → y = -15x + 580.... [2]


\left \{ {{y=30x+220} \atop {y=-15x+580}} \right.

------------------ (-)

0 = 45x - 360

x = 360 ÷ 45

= 8 days

y = 30x + 220

= 30(8) + 220

= $460
