document.write( "    My name is John, My Algebra class is studying linear equations and I got a question that I just cant seem to figure out using it or any other form of math. Ive tried cross multiplication but I couldn't get it to work. Anyways here it is: Christiana and Marlena opened their first savings account on the same day. Christiana opened her account with $50 and plans to deposit $10 every month. Marlena opened her account with $30 and plans to deposit $15 every month. After how many months will their two accounts have the same amount of money? What will that amount be?\r<BR>\n" );
