Both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount after 10 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the number of months after which both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount.

As Wolverine makes a $1000 down payment for a motorcycle and then pays $300 per month,

Amount paid by Wolverine in x months is equal to 1000+300x

As James Bond makes a $2500 down payment for a motorcycle and then pays $150 per month,

Amount paid by James Bond in x months is equal to 2500+150x

To find number of months after which both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount,

solve 1000+300x=2500+150x

$1000+300x=2500+150x\\300x-150x=2500-1000\\150x=1500\\x=\frac{1500}{150}=10$

So, both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount after 10 months.
