Step-by-step explanation:

the description has some weird errors and can be confusing.

at the end, I think, the question is, in what day are they reading on the same page.

D = 17t + 49 (49 is the starting value on day t=0)

A = 20t + 2 (2 is the starting value on day t=0)

in other words the question is : for what t (day) are the equations equal ?

17t + 49 = 20t + 2

47 = 3t

t = 47/3 = 15.6666...

so, ob the 16th day they are on the same page.
