After 20 laps Paula will have more money than Jackie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of laps.

Given, Paula has $10 and earns $0.50 per lap she runs for her school’s fundraiser.

i.e. Total amount Paula has =$ [ 10 +0.50 (Number of laps)]

= $ [10+0.50x]

Jackie has $15 and earns $0.25 per lap she runs for her school’s fundraiser.

i.e. Total amount Jackie has =$ [ 15 +0.25 (Number of laps)]

= $ [15+0.25x]
