The two graphs show the total amounts of money that Ian and Jeremy each have deposited into their savings accounts for the first seven weeks after opening their accounts. After they made their initial deposits, how much more did Ian deposit each week than Jeremy?
Correct answer: C. $50
- A. $200
- B. $100
- C. $50
- D. $25
Explanation
Choice C is correct. The graph for Ian shows that the initial deposit was $100 and that each week the total amount deposited increased by $100. Therefore, Ian deposited $100 each week. The graph for Jeremy shows that the initial deposit was $300 and that each week the total amount deposited increased by $50. Therefore, Jeremy deposited $50 each week. Thus, Ian deposited $50 more than Jeremy did each week.
