Answer:

Explanation:

Let the number of weeks = x

4*2.54 + 4x = growth for A

10*2.54 + 1*x= growth for B

So they will be the same when the 2 left sides are equated.

10.16 + 4x = 25.5 + x Subtract 10.16 from both sides

4x =25.5-10.16 + x Combine

4x = 15.34 + x Subtract x from both sides.

4x-x = 15.34

3x = 15.34 Divide by 3

x = 15.34/3

x = 5.11

So the answer is just a little over 5 weeks.
