Answer:


In\ the\ year\ 2016

Explanation:

Let
x\ years after 2013 they both receive same amount of money.

Victoria's Money:


Age\ of\ Victoria\ after\ x\ years=age\ in\ 2013+x=10+x


The\ amount\ she\ will\ get\ because\ of\ his\ age=2* age=2(10+x)\\\\Every\ year\ birthday\ amount=\$30\\\\Total\ amount=2(10+x)+30=2x+50

Alecia's Money:


Age\ of\ Alecia\ after\ x\ years=age\ in\ 2013+x=6+x\\The\ amount\ she\ will\ get\ because\ of\ his\ age=4* age=4(6+x)\\\\ Every\ year\ birthday\ amount=\$20\\\\ Total\ amount=4(6+x)+20=4x+44

The Money that Victoria and Alecia have are equal


2x+50=4x+44\\\\4x-2x=50-44\\\\2x=6\\\\x=3

3 Years after 2013 they both have same money


Year=2013+3=2016
