Problema Solution
John's weekly salary is $25 less than twice David's salary. The combine total of both their salaries is $1425. What are their individual salaries?
Answer provided by our tutors
We assume
John: 2x-25
David: x
The equation is
2x-25 + x = 1425
So
x = 483.33
So
John: $941.67
David: $483.33
