Answer:

After 15 days they'll both have $10

Explanation:

100 (Xavier's total)- 6x (6 dollars every day) = 160 (Zach's total amount) -10x (10 dollars every day)

[tex]100-6x=160-10x\\[/tex]

+10x on both sides

[tex]100+4x=160[/tex]

-100 on both sides

[tex]4x=60[/tex]

/4 on both sides

[tex]x=15[/tex]
