My apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.
A. What equation represents how much money Jane will have in total after saving for d days?
Jane: $100 + $5d
B. What equation represents how much money Ellis will have in total after saving for d days?
Ellis: $75 + $7d
C. What equation would be used to find out how many days it will take for Jane and Ellis to have the same amount of money saved?
$100 + $5d = $75 + $7d
D. After the amount of time found above, how much will Jane and Ellis each have saved?
At that time, both Jane and Ellis will have $115 saved.
WRONG
Apologies for the confusion. Let's correct it.
A. Jane's total money after d days: 100 + 5d
B. Ellis's total money after d days: 75 + 7d
C. Equation to find when they have the same amount saved: 100 + 5d = 75 + 7d
Combine like terms: 2d = 25
Solve for d: d = 12.5 days
D. After 12.5 days, Jane will have $162.50 saved (100 + 5 * 12.5) and Ellis will have $162.50 saved (75 + 7 * 12.5).
