Answer 1

In week 20, Seth will have 80 cards and Matt will have 60.

Explanation:

Let's find out the amount of cards that Math and Seth will have in week 20, using the information shown in the graph and table:

Amount of cards Seth has in week 20 = 20 * 4 = 80

The equation to find out the amount of cards, c, Seth has in week w:

c = 4w

Amount of cards Matt has in week 20 = 20 + (2 * 20) = 20 + 40 = 60

The equation to find out the amount of cards, c, Matt has in week w:

c = 20 + 2w

In week 20, Seth will have 80 cards and Matt will have 60.
