    7 Weeks

    46 dollars

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Initially, Diego was having a total sum of $11 and was increasing at the rate of $5 per week

    while

    Lynn has a total sum of $60 and was decreasing at the rate of $2 per week.

    Let after X weeks they are having the same amount of money.

    After X weeks diego will be having a sum of $ (11 + 5X).

    And, Lynn will be having a sum of $ (60-2X).

    Equating both we will get
