Answer:
52 minutes
Explanation:
Streaming Haunted Cave videos used the battery at the rate ...
(76% -16%)/(3·30 minutes) = 60%/(90 minutes) = (2/3)% per minute
Playing Top Pop used the battery at the rate ...
(63% -59%)/(24 minutes) = (4/24)% per minute = (1/6)% per minute
The remaining charge (in percent) after x minutes for Jorge's phone will be ...
J = 55 -2/3x
The remaining charge for Samantha's phone will be ...
S = 29 -1/6x
We can find the value of x that makes these equal:
J = S
55 -2/3x = 29 -1/6x
26 = 1/2x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 2/3x -29 to both sides
52 = x . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
It will be 52 minutes before the two phones have the same battery level.
