Answer 35$

Explanation:

Suppose you have $20 in your bank account. You start saving $5 each

week. Your friend has $5 in his account and is saving $10 each week.

After how many weeks will you and your friend have the same amount

in your account? How much money will you have?

y=5x+20

Y=10x+5

5x+20=10x+5

20=5x+5

15=5x+5

15/5 =5/5x

x= 3 weeks

5.3 + 20 = y y=$ 35

15+20= 35

so your answer is 35$
